About Nanda

Nanda Odedra is a counsellor with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She is registered with NCPS, and she focuses on practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood and self‑esteem struggles. Nanda encourages clients to use their own strengths while taking the first steps towards change.

She takes a straightforward, respectful approach in sessions. Conversations centre on what the person brings and on small, achievable steps to feel steadier.

Background and approach

Nanda listens for patterns that keep people stuck and offers ideas to try between sessions. Parents will find clear, practical ways to handle family tensions and the pressures of parenting. She also works with people coping with trauma, abuse, bipolar mood challenges, infidelity and jealousy.

Cultural background and identity are considered in how she tailors support. Nanda uses evidence‑based therapeutic techniques adapted to each person. Sessions are a mix of talking, planning and practising new responses to difficult situations.

She aims to help clients build confidence in managing tough moments. People can expect calm, non‑judgemental conversations and a focus on day‑to‑day strategies. Her style suits those who want practical tools alongside compassionate listening.

Nanda supports people as they try different ways to feel more capable and hopeful.

Everything Nanda lists, in their own terms. Parenting is the reason this directory exists; the rest shows what else Nanda helps people with.

Online support

Approaches that guide online parenting support

Nanda draws on evidence‑based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional regulation. One approach helps people learn skills to manage stress and anxiety through short, structured practices that can be used day to day. Another approach addresses trauma and emotional wounds by building safety, stabilisation and paced processing so people can feel less overwhelmed when memories or emotions arise.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nanda collaborates with each person to decide which techniques suit their needs and goals. She adapts methods over time and checks in about what helps and what doesn’t, so the plan stays practical and personalised.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text‑based messaging. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, and messaging or live chat can suit quick check‑ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around family life, work and different time zones, while keeping a steady, accessible way to work towards change.
