I am a qualified integrative counsellor, offering a thoughtful, flexible, and personalised approach to therapy. Integrative counselling brings together a range of therapeutic models, enabling me to draw on different techniques and perspectives to best support each individual. I believe there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to counselling—every person is unique, and therapy should reflect that. My work is grounded in seeing you as a whole person, taking into account your emotional, psychological, relational, and cultural experiences.
I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can begin to explore the challenges you are facing at your own pace. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship difficulties, loss, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I will work alongside you to help you make sense of your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will gently explore what may be underlying your current struggles, helping you gain deeper self-awareness and clarity.
A key part of our work may involve understanding and working through difficult emotions, as well as identifying unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour that may be keeping you stuck. I will support you in developing healthier ways of coping, relating, and responding to life’s challenges, empowering you to move towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.
I recognise that reaching out for support can feel daunting. Building trust is an important part of the therapeutic process, and I am committed to creating a space where you feel heard, accepted, and valued without judgement. My approach is compassionate, respectful, and collaborative—we will work together in a way that feels comfortable and meaningful to you.
I have completed my counselling training through a Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body (CPCAB) accredited course. I am committed to maintaining high professional standards and continue to develop my knowledge and skills through ongoing training and professional development.
In addition to English, I am fluent in Tamil and offer counselling in Tamil. I understand the importance of language and cultural sensitivity in therapy, and I aim to provide a space where you can express yourself freely and feel truly understood.
If you are considering counselling, I would be happy to speak with you and explore how we might work together.

Rajitha is a good listener, and distills everything down into some very good advice and strategies for dealing with the issues I am having, upto and including total overwhelm with what are normal life occurrences but that have all occurred in close sequence and unpredictable order.

Before meeting my therapist I was so scared of my panic attacks and believed it is going to be with me lifelong. I was on medication and doctor would write the prescription and that's it ! Whereas when I got with Rajitha my therapist she was friendly & a expert I always needed. Within just 1 month ( I can't believe yet ) my root cause is under control and like normal people I can easily control my emotional & mental health instead of being in control of them.

Written on Jan 24, 2024 after therapy with Rajitha for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and coaching
I felt comfortable with Rajitha from the very first minute which made it very easy for me to open myself and explain how I felt. She helped me over the period not simply by giving me a solution to my problems but by understanding where the root of the problem lies. This way I was able to understand myself better and also grew as a person with her. I also really enjoyed her different approaches and interactive tasks. Overall I would recommend Rajitha to someone who finds himself/herself in an emotionally difficult situation.

I am new to therapy and Rajitha was the second therapist I tried, having failed to establish a connection with the first. Immediately her proactive approach and manner worked very well for me. I was going through a difficult time in an important close relationship for several reasons, including significant detrimental negative behaviours on my part. These behaviours were the reason I was seeking therapy. Rajitha was able to quickly explain their impacts to me in a way that was very easy to understand, then through ongoing sessions clearly identify the roots of the problem/s and provide strategies for coping. This was not a quick fix, but a lasting solution whose steps I was aware of throughout the process. This alone is worthy of recommendation, but I was even more impressed by how Rajitha could adapt to my moods in our different sessions and every time I came away better than I was at the beginning, even when I was down or things about myself were hard to hear, she offered a clarity of insight that was important for me and very motivational. She always had extremely good advice and she knew exactly when it was time for me to conclude my treatment. Thank you Rajitha, I am a better person now than I was at the beginning of this journey!

I’ve loved doing therapy with Rajitha and now that I’m moving on from therapy because we feel like I’ve made enough progress to stand on my own, I would’ve wanted to stay just because of her. She’s a great therapist who listenes and shares her thoughts without ever judging. I couldn’t be happier with my experience with her.

I didn't know what to expect when I started therapy and Rajitha created a safe space to open up when I was vulnerable.
I'm very grateful for her help and guidance, which helped me immensely. I can't thank Rajitha enough.
