About Aamirah
Aamirah Khan helps people who are struggling with stress and anxiety, low mood, relationship tensions, family worries, trauma and abuse. She also supports people facing career crossroads, eating or sleeping difficulties, anger or low self-esteem. Aamirah speaks English and Urdu and brings 12 years of experience to her work in the United Kingdom.
She holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide safe professional practice. Her sessions are straightforward and practical.
Background and approach
She listens first, then helps clients name what matters most to them. Aamirah mixes coaching-style goal setting with therapeutic listening so people can make clearer decisions and take small steps forward. Aamirah draws on approaches such as acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in thoughts and relationships.
She also uses client-centred skills and elements of cognitive behavioural and dialectical behaviour approaches when those fit a person’s needs. People who come to her often want help with coping after big life changes, managing compassion fatigue, or navigating ongoing health or caregiving stress.
She supports those dealing with ADHD, bipolar or disruptive mood symptoms by focusing on practical routines and emotional skills. Sessions include video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what suits their life. To begin, the process starts with a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling according to availability.

Sessions & fees
Approaches you can use in online sessions
Aamirah uses acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, then clarify personal values and move toward meaningful action. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes.She also draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current struggles. That work can help with relationship tensions, communication problems and feelings of abandonment. In addition, client-centred methods mean sessions begin with open listening and reflecting so people feel heard before moving on to strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Aamirah will talk through different methods and help choose what fits a person’s goals, needs and preferences. The plan can change as therapy progresses, keeping the focus on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging works well for people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or health commitments.
