Pooja P, BACP

Pooja P is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and self-esteem concerns. She also supports those facing relationship and intimacy issues, addiction challenges, sleep and eating problems, and major life changes. Pooja brings a calm, warm approach and aims to make sessions easy to join for someone who may feel nervous about counselling.

She draws on a mix of methods to fit each person’s needs rather than using a single formula. Pooja uses attachment-focused work to look at how early bonds shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive-behavioural ideas to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and mindfulness to build moment-to-moment awareness. These approaches are blended with her background in person-centred and psychodynamic ways of working to keep sessions practical and reflective.

Pooja trained as a counsellor and holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration noted in her profile. Before counselling work she spent many years in corporate and hospitality roles, which exposed her to diverse cultural backgrounds and working styles.

Her style is warm and empathic. She gives people space to share at their own pace and adapts techniques to the person in front of her. Sessions are shaped around practical goals, coping skills and clearer thinking about relationship and life patterns.

People who meet her can expect straightforward conversation, tailored strategies and gentle reflection. Pooja aims to work collaboratively, helping people notice everyday habits and thoughts that get in the way of feeling better.

How these approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current behaviour and feelings. Online sessions using this frame help people notice patterns in their connections and practise different ways of relating.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting thoughts and habits that keep problems going. Working this way online often means setting clear tasks between sessions and using short exercises to test new thinking.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple awareness skills to reduce reactivity and manage stress. In remote work this can include short guided practices and attention exercises to use through the day.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and life demands and decide together which methods to try first. This collaborative plan can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow check-ins from different locations. Some formats are better for brief coaching-style check-ins, while others suit longer reflective sessions or guided exercises, so confirming options will help match needs to practical arrangements.
