Amreeta Chapman-Aujayeb, BACP

Amreeta Chapman-Aujayeb is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years' clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and depression. She also has a focus on blended family issues and related relationship challenges.

She trained originally with a Masters in Clinical Psychology and later moved into therapeutic counselling and hypnotherapy. She is currently undertaking Doctorate level study toward a professorial role in psychotherapy and counselling education. Her career spans work in Mauritius, India and the UK, and that cross-cultural experience informs her sessions.

Amreeta works in plain, practical ways. She makes room for both short-term technique based work and longer term work for complex trauma. Sessions can include practical skills for anxiety and confidence, alongside longer conversations about past harm and recovery from abusive relationships.

She speaks English, French and Hindi, and the biography notes experience with clients from many cultural backgrounds. The practice description emphasises helping people understand symptoms and find ways to reduce the problems those symptoms cause in day-to-day life.

Her approach draws on several recognised therapies, including cognitive and emotion-focused methods. In sessions she aims to build a working alliance and to collaborate on realistic steps that fit each person's life. Practical goals and clearer routines are common targets in her work.

People in stephouseholds or blended households often bring worries about loyalty, co-parenting and merged routines. Amreeta has listed blended family issues among her focus areas and can help people talk through those specific pressures alongside the other concerns she treats.
