01 · Who Ashna works with

Ashna works with stress, Anxiety, family conflicts and career difficulties

Ashna lists 10 specialisms and 13 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Ashna chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.

02 · In Ashna's own words

What Ashna says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

What could you achieve if nothing was standing in your way?

You struggle with your relationships with others (family, significant other, friends, coworkers) where you don't feel heard or respected. You feel you're not taken seriously and are dismissed. You feel you're not seen as an equal or that you have much to offer. This leaves you feeling frustrated. Maybe you feel like crying, maybe you feel like screaming, or maybe you feel like crawling under the covers and hiding from the world. While the steps to reach our goals are simple, they are not always easy. It's our mindset that often gets in the way and tells us that we can't do something. Sometimes we are so overwhelmed and don't know in which direction to go.

You have a lot of demands placed on you as a woman, a daughter, a sister, a mother, a partner, a friend, and a worker. As women we take on a lot. No doubt you're struggling under all the pressure. I'm sure you feel you struggle to cope at times, drowning in a never ending to do list, feeling stuck, trapped, no sense of control, and having difficulty managing everything. Many women struggle to find their voice to help them get their needs met. We are often taught at a young age to be helpers, to be 'ladylike', not to say or do anything that will upset others. Where has this left us? We don't get our needs met and if we don't do so for ourselves, then who will?

Allow me to help you find your voice and set boundaries with others. I will help you do this by making you the author of your own story, helping you take back control, empower you, and provide you with the necessary tools to help you succeed. It's all within each of us, it's just a matter of finding it. We don't always know how to do so alone and it is ok to reach out for help and support. Your day to day life experience can be radically different. You can wake up each morning and look forward to the day ahead. I don't promise that it will be easy, but it will be worth it.

Change IS possible.

03 · How Ashna works

The 5 approaches Ashna lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Ashna lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Ashna's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Ashna runs a session.

Client-Centred TherapyPerson-centred · Rogerian

The therapist does not steer toward a technique or a diagnosis. They offer sustained, non-judgemental attention and reflect back what they hear, on the premise that people find their own direction when they are genuinely listened to. Often what people mean by “someone who just gets it”.

Cognitive Behavioural TherapyCBT

Structured, present-focused work on the loop between what you think, how you feel and what you then do. Usually means noticing a thought pattern in the room, testing it against evidence, and practising something different between sessions. Among the most heavily researched talking therapies for depression and anxiety.

Mindfulness-Based TherapyMBCT

Trains attention on what is happening right now - body, breath, the thought as it arrives - so distress can be observed rather than automatically acted on. Strongest evidence is in preventing depression from recurring, and it is usually taught as a practice you keep doing outside the session.

Motivational InterviewingMI

A way of talking about change with somebody who is genuinely in two minds about it. The therapist does not argue for the change; they help you say your own reasons out loud, which is the part that predicts whether it happens. Common around substance use and health behaviour.

Solution-Focused Brief TherapySFBT

Starts from where you want to end up rather than from how you got here. Sessions look for the times the problem is already smaller and work out what is different about those, so the number of sessions tends to be short and the work concrete.

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Ashna practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Ashna's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Ashna at this point.

2. Naming Ashna specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Ashna is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Ashna.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

2 questions worth asking Ashna

Built from what Ashna actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Ashna's - Ashna has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “You list both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Which do you lean on with someone like me?”

  Those two point in different directions - one structured and led by the therapist, the other led by you. The answer tells you what the sessions will actually feel like.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Ashna's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Ashna. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
