Aija Lace , BACP

Aija Lace is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem and big life changes. She also offers coaching for motivation and purpose. Aija works with adults who want practical ways to feel steadier and more confident. Aija uses a client-centred style. That means conversations focus on the person's experience and priorities. She aims to listen closely and reflect what matters most to each individual. Sessions are paced to suit the person rather than following a fixed script. Her work pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns and how these shape relationships. She can talk through issues such as commitment worries, control patterns and feeling isolated. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, forgiveness and questions about sexuality. Aija brings four years of experience in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. That registration is shown as BACP in her credentials. In session, Aija aims to help people find their own solutions. Conversations tend to be warm and non-judgemental, with an emphasis on small steps and practical coping ideas. People leave with concrete strategies to try between meetings.

How client-centred therapy works online

Aija draws on client-centred therapy online, which focuses on the person's own experience and goals. In practice this means sessions begin by hearing what matters most to the person, and then following that lead. This approach helps with stress, anxiety and self-esteem concerns by creating room to make sense of feelings and priorities. The therapist also addresses attachment and relationship patterns in conversation. Sessions look at how past experiences shape trust and connection, and then explore small changes people can try. These conversations are collaborative and aimed at workable next steps rather than labels. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Aija will discuss options with the person and together they will decide what feels like the best fit. That process is flexible and can change as goals shift over time. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and fuller interaction. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or need flexible timing during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life or other commitments.
