Pooja P, BACP

Pooja P is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship issues and jealousy. She supports those dealing with grief, low self-esteem, addictions, trauma and intimacy-related concerns. Pooja also works with practical life challenges like sleeping and eating problems, career strain, parenting stress and coping with major life changes.

She trained as a counsellor and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. Before counselling she spent many years in corporate and hospitality roles. That background shaped her awareness of different cultures and workplace pressures.

In sessions she aims to be warm and empathic while giving clients space to speak. She uses a flexible style and adapts the approach to what each person needs. Techniques from attachment-focused work, cognitive behaviour approaches and emotionally focused methods may be used when they fit the goals.

Pooja says she works creatively and tailors therapy to circumstances. This can include practical exercises, talking through patterns and building new coping strategies. Sessions also look at relationships and attachment issues when these are relevant to the presenting difficulties.

She offers therapy in English, Gujarati and Hindi and accepts international clients. Practical details such as session formats should be confirmed before booking. To begin, clients use the site Start Therapy process and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It looks at trust, boundaries and emotional responses to help people change how they relate to themselves and others, which can be useful for intimacy and abandonment concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, breaks larger problems into small steps and practical tasks. It helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and replaces them with clearer ways of coping for issues like anxiety, depression and sleep problems.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy centres on understanding and processing strong feelings in relationships. It can help people name emotions, respond to them differently and shift interaction patterns that cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then decide together which methods to try. This collaborative process means plans can change as needs evolve.

Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins around work. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online options that help people continue therapy when in-person meetings are difficult, and choices are made to suit practical needs.
