Rakshita Parmar , BACP

Rakshita Parmar works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and parenting challenges. She names women's issues among her focus areas and supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and changes at work or home. She speaks English and Gujarati and practises in the United Kingdom. Rakshita holds BACP accreditation and brings nine years of clinical experience to her work.

Her style is warm and respectful. She pays attention to cultural background and personal values. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs rather than a fixed formula. People can expect clear, direct conversations and practical steps to try between meetings.

Rakshita uses approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness to help with anxious thoughts and sleep problems. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify what matters to them. Attachment-based and client-centred ways of working inform how she supports people with intimacy and relationship concerns.

Her experience includes grief, trauma, eating and sleeping concerns, anger and compassion fatigue among other issues. She helps individuals with parenting stress, fertility-related worries and career transitions. Rakshita also lists work around ADHD, body image and blended family dynamics.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Sessions are provided through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and then appointments are scheduled according to therapist availability.

How Rakshita blends approach and online care

Rakshita commonly uses cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness as part of her online work. Cognitive behavioural therapy helps people notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts and build practical skills for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Mindfulness practice trains attention and acceptance so people can reduce stress and respond differently to difficult feelings.

She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients clarify values and take steps that matter to them, and attachment-based ideas when relationship or intimacy concerns are central. Finding the right mix is collaborative; the therapist will talk through options, try techniques together, and adjust the plan to match a person's goals and preference for longer or shorter term support.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when lower bandwidth or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing between scheduled appointments or want flexible, brief contact. These options make therapy more accessible and easier to fit around work, parenting and day-to-day life.
