About Kashina

Kashina Smith is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She brings three years of practice in the United Kingdom and focuses on clear, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She works with individuals dealing with trauma and abuse, parenting challenges and low self-esteem.

Kashina also supports people facing communication problems, fertility and pregnancy concerns, and the emotional impact of infidelity.

Background and approach

Her approach focuses on recognising strengths and building on them to make steady change. Kashina believes clients are the experts in their own stories. She listens without judgement and helps people make sense of painful experiences.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what the person wants to achieve. The work can include building confidence, reducing anxiety, improving communication and processing difficult events linked to sexual assault or other abuse. She encourages practical steps alongside emotional processing so clients can try new ways of coping between sessions.

Her practice is grounded in collaboration. Kashina supports each person to set realistic goals and reviews progress together. This helps keep the work relevant to everyday life and the pressures people face.

Everything Kashina lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Two evidence-based approaches commonly used with this style of work are cognitive-based techniques and trauma-focused methods. Cognitive-based techniques help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try alternative ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Trauma-focused methods help people process difficult memories and reduce the ways past events affect day-to-day life.

Another useful approach is skills-oriented work that teaches practical tools for stress management, communication and building confidence. These tools are rehearsed in sessions and practised between appointments to support steady progress on real-life problems such as parenting stress or relationship conflict.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, listen to what matters most to the person and adapt sessions to match their needs and goals. Together they review what helps and change direction when something is not working.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are helpful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, while phone sessions suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, shorter sessions or when someone needs to write through thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
