About Rakshita
Rakshita Parmar offers calm, practical support for people facing a wide range of life challenges. She writes plainly and listens closely to understand what matters most. Her approach is adaptable and aimed at helping people take small, manageable steps forward.
Rakshita has a BACP credential and nine years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She has helped people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, parenting concerns, and relationship or intimacy-related issues.
Background and approach
Other areas she focuses on include sleep and eating difficulties, anger, self-esteem, ADHD and coping with life changes. Sessions are shaped around each person's culture, values and personal history. She adjusts conversation style and techniques to meet individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
The emphasis is on practical tools and straightforward reflection that can be used between meetings. People can expect a respectful, compassionate space where their experience is heard without judgement. Rakshita aims to help clients set realistic goals and practise skills that reduce distress and increase day-to-day functioning.
She also offers coaching-style support for career and life transitions. Therapy is offered in English and Gujarati and is provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and arrangements are made after completing a short matching questionnaire.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made or needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, quick coaching prompts or people who find typing more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life while using the chosen therapeutic approaches to guide each session.
