About Pooja

BACP. 4 years' experience. Pooja P works with stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, parenting issues, and mood conditions including depression and bipolar. She also addresses ADHD, compassion fatigue, career pressures and a wide range of attachment and relationship-related difficulties.

Pooja offers counselling using approaches that include Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Imago Relationship Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. She explains things in plain terms and focuses on what people want to change. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, trying small practical steps, and using mindfulness exercises when helpful.

Her background includes a long career in corporate and hospitality sectors working with diverse cultural groups, together with qualifications in human resources and counselling. She draws on that experience when discussing work-related stress, career decisions and cross-cultural strains.

Pooja aims for a respectful, flexible way of working. She adapts how she uses different methods to match the issues a person brings. That can mean shorter practical tools one week and deeper relational work another week.

Sessions are offered in English, Gujarati and Hindi. She works with international clients as well as people based in the United Kingdom. Costs vary by location and sessions run on a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it is useful for people struggling with trust, abandonment fears or repeated relational conflicts. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours to identify unhelpful patterns and introduce practical changes; it is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions in relationships and learn new ways of responding; it is helpful for couples and individuals experiencing intense emotional disconnection.

Deciding which method to use is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and the problems a person brings, and then suggest approaches to try. That plan can change as work progresses, with different methods used at different times.

If you are considering online counselling, confirm the session formats available before booking. The counsellor can explain practical options and how sessions are arranged. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions are simpler to attend. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practice and behavioural tasks for remote sessions so therapy remains focused on everyday goals.
