About Kashina

Kashina Smith is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns and self esteem, and she works with people on related issues such as communication problems and fertility concerns.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and treats each person as the expert on their life. Sessions centre on practical conversation about what is happening now, what has helped before, and small steps that can reduce pressure and improve day-to-day functioning. Kashina aims to clarify goals and try approaches that fit each person's circumstances.

Her background includes supporting people dealing with sexual assault and abuse, guilt and shame, infidelity, pregnancy and childbirth, and building self-love and confidence. She draws on proven clinical methods to address trauma responses and anxiety, and she works to strengthen communication and coping strategies for parenting strain.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Kashina helps people spot patterns, practise new ways of communicating, and rehearse skills between meetings. She encourages realistic steps and checks progress as therapy continues.

People meet her to work through specific problems and to develop practical skills they can use after therapy. To begin, readers are asked to use the site button to view online therapy options and complete the short matching questionnaire before booking a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on present-day problems and practical skills. One common approach used in this style is structured work on thoughts and behaviours to reduce anxiety and stress; this involves noticing thinking patterns and practising different reactions to them. Another common strand is trauma-informed work that focuses on managing responses to past harm, building safety in daily routines, and developing coping strategies for triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which techniques fit the client's needs, goals and preferences, and will adapt methods as those needs become clearer over time.

Online sessions can help fit therapy into an ordinary week by avoiding travel and allowing meetings from wherever a person is that day. Different practical formats may suit different needs, so please confirm current session options before booking. The format can be chosen to match quieter surroundings, shorter check-ins, or sessions where being on camera is not required, helping therapy to fit around work, childcare and other commitments.
