About Aamirah
Aamirah Khan is a counsellor who helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and family difficulties. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, mood problems such as depression and bipolar, and issues around self-esteem and anger. Aamirah brings 12 years of professional experience and works with clients who want clearer thinking, better coping skills and practical goals.
She combines coaching with therapy to help people set meaningful goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding how thoughts and feelings influence behaviour. Conversations are non-judgemental and aim to make everyday choices feel more manageable. Aamirah uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person.
Cognitive behavioural ideas help with unhelpful thinking patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to live by their values even when feelings are difficult. Attachment-based ideas are used to explore relationship patterns and communication problems.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy tools are offered for stronger emotion regulation and crisis coping. The therapist-centred style is warm and practical, with simple skills taught in-session. She offers therapy in English and Urdu and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally.
Sessions take place by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Aamirah asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule sessions according to the usual process.
How Aamirah’s approaches work online
Aamirah uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours. CBT is practical and suited to anxiety, low mood and many everyday problems. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches people to notice difficult feelings while taking steps that match their values. ACT can help when avoidance or worry gets in the way of living a meaningful life.Finding the right method is a joint process. The therapist will discuss your situation, goals and preferences and together decide which approach or mix of approaches to use. That collaborative plan can be reviewed and adapted as you progress.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets you work face to face when that suits. Phone calls can be quicker and require less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging fits short check-ins, written reflection or those who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping consistent treatment with registered or accredited professionals.
