Pooja P, BACP

Pooja P is a counsellor who helps people facing midlife transitions and related concerns. She supports those dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy difficulties, and changes in career or family roles. She also works with people experiencing addiction, ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, and feelings of emptiness or abandonment. Pooja speaks English, Gujarati and Hindi and practises in the United Kingdom.

Pooja combines practical conversation with reflective listening. Her style is warm and empathic, and she aims to give people space while guiding discussion. She adapts each session to an individual’s needs and life situation rather than following a rigid plan.

Her clinical background includes Attachment-Based methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Imago Relationship Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. She draws on these approaches to help people understand patterns, manage difficult emotions and try small, manageable changes between sessions.

Pooja has four years of counselling experience and holds BACP, which is listed as her professional credential. Before counselling she spent many years in corporate and hospitality settings and brings that knowledge of workplace and cultural differences into her work.

People who meet her can expect straightforward conversation focused on what matters right now. She invites clients to set goals together and to try practical steps that fit into everyday life. If you are considering therapy, check the booking pathway to confirm the current session options before arranging an appointment.

How these approaches work for online sessions

Attachment-Based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current emotional life. It helps people notice repeated cycles and try new ways of relating when emotions become intense.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It is practical and goal-oriented, often including small exercises to try between sessions to reduce anxiety or shift unhelpful habits.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and move through strong feelings that get in the way of connection or self-understanding. It can be useful for people struggling with grief, intimacy or persistent emotional blocks.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, preferences and life circumstances, and then suggest which methods to try first. Decisions are made together and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a lunch break. Because the biography does not specify which session formats are offered, check the booking details to confirm current options before scheduling. Many people find online sessions help maintain regular contact while managing day-to-day commitments.
