About Pooja

Pooja P is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of counselling experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, relationship problems and many other life challenges. Sessions are offered in English, Gujarati and Hindi, and international clients are accepted.

Pooja draws on approaches such as attachment-based work, cognitive behavioural ideas, emotionally-focused techniques, Imago relationship concepts and mindfulness. In practical terms she helps people notice patterns that keep causing distress. That might mean spotting triggers, testing small behaviour changes, or practising simple attention exercises to reduce reactivity.

Her background includes long experience in corporate and service industries and a qualification in human resources alongside counselling training. That experience informs a down-to-earth style and an understanding of workplace pressures and cross-cultural dynamics.

In sessions she aims to give people space to talk through difficult feelings and to try out new ways of responding. Conversations are focused and practical, with time spent on skills to manage strong emotions and on how to repair strained relationships.

People often come with tiredness from caregiving, problems sleeping, struggles with self-esteem, or the build-up of resentment and anger. Work may include brief coaching elements alongside therapeutic exploration to help clients manage immediate pressures while addressing longer-term patterns.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used for online work

Pooja commonly draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques when working online. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape reactions today and helps people understand why they feel threatened or shut down around others. Cognitive behavioural work breaks a problem into thoughts, feelings and actions and tests small changes to reduce reactivity and unhelpful behaviour.

She also uses emotionally-focused techniques to help name difficult feelings and to shift how people respond in close relationships. That approach is useful when anger follows unmet needs or repeated misunderstandings. Together these methods aim to balance immediate coping skills with an understanding of longer-term patterns, and the therapist will work collaboratively to choose which fits best for each person.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins, and remove travel time. They can also let people use phone-only or lower-bandwidth options when video is difficult, depending on what the therapist offers and what suits the client's circumstances.
