About Aija

Aija Lace is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem and major life changes. She also offers coaching-style support for motivation and finding direction. She works in the United Kingdom and uses a person-centred approach to support each person's goals.

Her practice is based on the idea that clients know their own story. She listens without judgement and gently guides people to notice strengths they may have overlooked. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than labels or quick fixes.

Over four years she has supported people dealing with panic and mood difficulties, feelings of isolation, and struggles with attachment or abandonment. She also addresses issues such as commitment or control problems, guilt and shame, and questions about sexuality and life purpose.

People can expect a calm, respectful space to talk through painful experiences and confusing decisions. The work is collaborative - she asks questions, reflects back what she hears, and helps clients try out different ways of coping. Practical tools and small changes are used alongside exploring feelings.

This approach suits those wanting to build self-love and resilience, manage panic or anxiety, or work through relationship patterns. If you are ready to take a step towards change, the initial process is about finding what matters to you and how best to move forward.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

A client-centred approach focuses on listening, empathy and following what matters to the person. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what they hear, asks gentle questions and helps clients name their priorities. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship patterns and life changes because it builds understanding and self-directed solutions.

The therapist also uses collaborative coaching techniques to help with motivation and practical next steps. That often looks like setting small goals together, reviewing progress and adapting plans when something does not work. Clients benefit from a mix of exploring feelings and trying simple, actionable strategies.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process and will be decided together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adjust the approach as therapy progresses. This joint planning helps make sessions relevant and focused on real-life problems.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the work to suit your needs and routines.
