About Poppy

Poppy Perrin is a BACP registered member and an NCPS accredited member with three years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression, and also lists anger among the issues she supports. Sessions are described as collaborative and practical, focused on understanding what is happening and building useful tools.

Poppy uses an integrative approach, bringing together different therapy models to suit the person and their situation. That means conversations can include talking through patterns, learning new ways to respond to strong feelings, and practising techniques that reduce overwhelm. She aims to keep sessions straightforward and goal-focused while still leaving room to reflect.

People commonly come to her feeling stuck, unable to get calm under pressure, or repeatedly snapping at people they care about. She also works with issues linked to trauma, addiction, grief, relationship and family difficulties, sleep and eating problems, career stress and ADHD-related challenges. Poppy lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and communication problems.

Her clinical toolkit includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. In practice this looks like a mix of reflective conversation, practical skills training and experiments to try between sessions. She encourages clients to set clear, manageable goals and to review progress together.

Poppy works in English and does not accept international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Poppy uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). ACT focuses on identifying values and taking small actions that move you toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts. CBT involves spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours to change mood and reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss the options with each person and agree a path based on goals, preferences and what feels most useful. That means trying practical techniques, reviewing what helps, and adapting the plan as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm which online formats are offered before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered and accredited professionals often use a mix of conversation and homework exercises that transfer directly to everyday situations.
