About Khurshid
Khurshid Ali is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, low self-esteem, career difficulties, depression, LGBT concerns, family issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, anger and coping with life changes.
She focuses on creating an open environment where clients can talk about their thoughts and feelings without judgement. Sessions are practical and straightforward. Khurshid encourages small, manageable steps so people can try new ways of handling difficult moments between meetings.
Her approach emphasises clear conversation and practical techniques rather than long theory. She helps people spot patterns that fuel anger and frustration, and then tries out different responses to reduce spillover into relationships and work. Conversations cover triggers, reactions, and small behavioural changes that are realistic to keep practicing.
Khurshid also works with grief, low motivation and career setbacks, helping people regain clarity and confidence. She supports clients who want to rebuild routines, set boundaries, or manage ongoing stress in daily life. Progress is measured in practical changes the person notices week to week.
To begin, she asks people to complete a short questionnaire so sessions can focus on the most pressing problems. That helps set clear goals for the first few meetings and makes it easier to track what is working.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach involves identifying clear patterns of thinking and behaviour that feed stress and anger, then testing alternative responses in everyday situations. This helps people reduce reactions that feel automatic and regain more control over how they respond.Another approach teaches simple skills for managing emotions in the moment, such as paced breathing, short grounding exercises and step-by-step action plans to replace unhelpful habits. These techniques are used to lower immediate tension and to build repeated practice between sessions.
Choosing the right approach happens together. Khurshid will work with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and circumstances. The plan can change as progress is made and new challenges appear, keeping the work practical and focused on what the person wants to achieve.
