About Reshma

Reshma Salam is a BACP counsellor who offers one-to-one therapy for adults and young people. She aims to create an understanding, non-judgemental space where people can explore their concerns and work at their own pace. Her approach focuses on empowering clients to find their own answers and make changes that help them move forward.

Many people come to her with relationship and parenting worries, low self-esteem, depression, grief, anger, or family difficulties. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, postpartum depression, feelings of isolation, and issues linked to immigration or discrimination. Reshma helps with career concerns and the practical challenges that follow major life changes.

Reshma uses Client-Centred Therapy as her main approach and integrates other helpful resources to match each person’s needs. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit the individual, with emphasis on listening, reflection, and practical steps when appropriate.

She holds registration with the BACP, which is shown as BACP. Reshma has several years of professional experience working in children and young people services and in third-sector roles supporting women and young people. Her background includes roles within a local authority children and young people service and a national children’s mental health charity.

How Client-Centred Therapy can work online

Client-Centred Therapy places warm, accepting listening at the heart of sessions. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflecting back what they say and helping them notice their own feelings and choices. This approach suits issues like low self-esteem, relationship doubts, grief, and parenting stress because it focuses on understanding and self-directed change.

Reshma also draws on a blend of other helpful resources to meet individual needs. These additional elements are used to introduce practical ideas or gentle exercises when they fit the person’s goals. Deciding which methods to try happens together, so therapy feels relevant to the client’s situation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical constraints, and will adapt the way sessions run as understanding grows. This collaborative process helps ensure the approach matches what the client wants to achieve.

The specific session formats offered are not listed here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around family life and work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep continuity of care when schedules change, while the therapist and client agree together how best to structure sessions.
