Hello I am Aisha
I am a BACP-accredited counsellor and integrative psychotherapist. I work with adult women who may appear to be coping while privately experiencing anxiety, exhaustion, self-doubt or difficulties in relationships.
You may have become used to putting others first, keeping difficult feelings to yourself, or feeling responsible for everyone around you. I offer space to explore these experiences with care and without judgement.
Culture identity and belonging
I am of Ghanaian heritage, moved to Norway at thirteen and spent my adult life in the UK. These experiences have shaped my understanding of navigating cultures, language barriers and questions of belonging.
They also remind me that every person’s story is different. In our work, there is room to explore the significance of culture, faith, racism, family expectations or migration if these are relevant to you. You decide what you wish to bring.
How I work with you
I work collaboratively, drawing on humanistic, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural approaches. This means paying attention to our therapeutic relationship, understanding patterns shaped by earlier experiences and developing practical ways of responding to present difficulties.
We can focus on immediate concerns, explore longer-standing patterns, or move between the two according to your needs. You can ask questions, express uncertainty and tell me when something does not feel helpful.
Qualifications and professional standing
BSc Honours in Counselling and Coaching (First Class); MSc in Psychology (Distinction).
Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy — MBACP Accred.
I work in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework and use clinical supervision to support my practice.
