Krishna Ubhi, BACP

Krishna Ubhi is an accredited counsellor and psychological therapist with eleven years of professional experience, practising from the United Kingdom and accepting international clients. She is a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which indicates recognised professional standards for counselling practice. Krishna works in English and offers flexible appointment options, including evening sessions when available, and both short-term and long-term counselling to suit different needs.

Her practice focuses on supporting people affected by stress, anxiety, addictions, family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. She also pays particular attention to issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver stress, relationship and communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, family of origin concerns, guilt and shame, isolation and questions of life purpose and midlife transition. Krishna has specific experience supporting survivors of domestic and sexual violence and abuse, and she works with the psychological aftermath of childhood and adult trauma, including PTSD and related challenges.

Krishna describes her approach as direct, honest and grounded. She aims to offer depth, clarity and practical tools rather than vague reassurance, gently challenging clients to notice patterns, take responsibility for change, and move forward in meaningful ways. She welcomes all clients and encourages anyone seeking compassionate, experienced support to get in touch to arrange a session.

Evidence-based approaches and the benefits of online therapy

Krishna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person's situation. She commonly employs trauma-informed work that helps people process and integrate difficult experiences in a paced and supportive way, which can be helpful for survivors of abuse, complex trauma and PTSD. She also uses skills-based and communication-focused methods that teach practical coping strategies for anxiety, stress, addiction-related behaviours and relationship difficulties, helping clients build tools to manage symptoms and improve everyday functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Krishna collaborates with clients to identify the best fit based on their needs, goals and preferences, adapting methods over time so therapy remains relevant and effective. This collaborative stance helps ensure sessions remain focused on meaningful progress rather than one-size-fits-all techniques.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments or geographical distance. For many people this accessibility supports consistent engagement and allows registered professionals like Krishna to provide ongoing, focused support in ways that suit each client's life.
