About Aamirah
Aamirah Khan is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 12 years of professional experience. She works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, and mood conditions like depression and bipolar. She also provides coaching to help people set goals and clarify thinking. Sessions are conducted in English and Urdu and international clients are accepted.
Aamirah keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. She listens, asks questions that help name difficult feelings, and supports people as they decide what matters most to them. The approaches she uses include Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
Clients might work on practical skills for managing anxiety, or look at patterns that affect relationships and communication. She can help with sleep or eating concerns, coping with change, anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related difficulties. Work on career decisions and caregiving stress is also offered.
With people who have experienced trauma or abuse, sessions focus on pacing and establishing what the client feels able to address. When relationships are the focus, attention is given to the feelings and attachment patterns that keep difficult cycles going. Coaching sessions concentrate on clear goals and steps that fit day-to-day life.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Aamirah uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help people name and work through emotions that shape relationship patterns. EFT focuses on understanding feelings and the interaction cycles that keep difficulties repeating, which can help with communication and closeness issues.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people clarify values and commit to small, practical steps. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress and when someone wants clearer direction in daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at early attachment patterns and how they influence current relationships and reactions to stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then agree a way forward together. That collaborative decision can include mixing methods as needs change over time.
