Aishwarya Kulkarni, BACP

Aishwarya Kulkarni is a UK-certified psychotherapist who creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to explore what matters most to them. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process rather than a project to be fixed, helping clients set a pace that feels manageable and humane. Her work is grounded in a person-centered outlook, with psychodynamic ideas woven in to gently examine how early experiences may influence current patterns and relationships.

She draws on a range of therapeutic models when needed, bringing particular attention to emotional experience, relationship dynamics, and the stories people tell about their lives. Aishwarya has experience supporting people with issues such as trauma and abuse, anxiety and depression, relationship difficulties, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, and concerns around identity and intimacy. She also works with a broad set of additional difficulties including attachment and abandonment issues, caregiving stress, and communication or control problems.

Aishwarya is registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), which reflects professional training and standards. Outside of her clinical work she practices painting with pastels and acrylics and dances Kathak, activities she says help her stay connected to emotion and creativity. Her style is warm, collaborative, and paced by the client - focused on offering a space where people can be seen and begin to make sense of change.
