Sonam Nagrani, HCPC

Sonam Nagrani is a HCPC-registered clinical psychologist with ten years of practice across NHS, private and voluntary settings. She draws on that range of experience to meet each person where they are. Sonam aims to make first contact feel straightforward and humane, and she acknowledges how hard it can be to ask for help.

She works collaboratively to address stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. Her sessions also cover relationship difficulties, workplace problems, and challenges that follow trauma and abuse. Midlife crisis and life purpose come up for many clients, and Sonam helps people who are reassessing their next steps.

Her clinical style adapts to the person in front of her. She blends client-centred ways of working with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy. Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing and mindfulness approaches are also part of her toolbox when they suit a person’s needs.

In sessions she focuses on clear, manageable steps and on talking through what matters most to the client. That might mean building skills to manage panic, working through guilt and shame, or addressing communication problems. Sonam also supports people coping with separation or domestic violence related concerns.

She sees people who identify as LGBT and those with military or veteran backgrounds among other concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Hindi, and she accepts international clients. If you want to explore whether she is the right fit, starting with a brief questionnaire and a scheduling step is the way to begin.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-centred therapy is about hearing the person’s perspective and tailoring sessions around their priorities. It helps when someone needs space to talk and to shape goals at their own pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms like panic or low mood. These tools are useful for stress, anxiety and workplace worries.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and adapt methods as goals and needs become clearer. Together they decide what to try first and make adjustments as progress is reviewed.

Please confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit appointments around work or family time, reduce travel, and allow quicker check-ins when needed. Others choose options that suit quieter surroundings or require less video time. Registered or accredited professionals can offer flexible ways to meet; discuss practical arrangements when you book to find what works best for you.
