About Kalpna

Kalpna Kerai is a UK-based therapist with 13 years of professional experience and holds the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and motivation challenges, as well as a wide range of relationship, family and intimacy-related issues. Kalpna also works with individuals navigating eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting concerns, anger, career transitions, bipolar and depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Her practice includes focused attention on abandonment and attachment issues, personality and neurodiversity-related concerns such as avoidant and antisocial patterns, autism and Asperger syndrome, and codependency. She also assists those coping with chronic illness or pain, caregiver stress, body image worries, commitment and communication problems, and blended family dynamics. Kalpna brings a calm, nonjudgmental stance and collaborates with people to explore their thoughts and feelings in a supportive environment where honesty and openness are encouraged.

Recognizing that starting therapy can require courage, she works to make that first step easier and to tailor the therapeutic approach to each person’s needs and goals. Kalpna accepts new clients in the United Kingdom and works with international clients as well.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Kalpna uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape emotional patterns and interpersonal trust, which can help people struggling with abandonment, attachment difficulties, or relationship instability. She also works from a Client-Centered Therapy perspective, offering a compassionate, non-directive space where the person’s own goals and values guide the work and self-understanding grows through empathic listening. Motivational Interviewing is used when change feels difficult; this collaborative method helps clarify personal motivation and build commitment to practical steps, useful for issues like addictions, behaviour change, or ambivalence about treatment.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Kalpna collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and together they decide which methods fit best and can be adjusted over time to match progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing work, family, or health needs. Sessions can take place via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing continuity of care across locations and schedules. Working with licensed professionals in these formats can make accessing regular support easier while maintaining a therapeutic focus and momentum.
