About Reshma
Reshma Salam helps people facing relationship strain, parenting pressures, low self-esteem, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, career uncertainty and big life changes. She also supports concerns such as abandonment, blended family tensions, domestic violence, family of origin problems, immigration challenges, isolation, multicultural issues and postpartum depression. Reshma works with adults and young people and offers one-to-one counselling in the United Kingdom.
Reshma is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and draws on a client-centred approach.
Background and approach
That means conversations focus on the person in front of her and their experience. Sessions aim to be respectful, non-judgemental and paced to each individual so people can find their own answers. Her background includes roles in local authority children and young people services and work for a major children’s mental health charity.
She currently works as a senior counsellor for a women’s charity, bringing practical experience of supporting people through difficult life events. In sessions Reshma listens, reflects and helps people explore feelings and options. She integrates other helpful resources when they suit a person’s needs.
The emphasis is on empowerment and on making changes that feel right for the client. People can expect sessions that are calm and straightforward. The goal is clearer thinking and steady progress, whether someone needs short-term support or help navigating longer issues.
Reshma has around four years' counselling experience in independent practice settings alongside her third-sector work.

Approaches Reshma lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Reshma uses that client-centred way of working to follow what matters most to each person. She will work together with clients to decide which ways of working fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative approach means the pace and focus can change as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone is simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat can suit quick check-ins and messaging lets people reflect in their own time. These options make counselling more flexible and possible alongside work, family and other commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to provide consistent therapeutic support across distance.
