Pooja P helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and relationship difficulties. She also supports those facing low self-esteem, addiction struggles, sleep and eating issues, and career or parenting challenges. Pooja speaks English, Gujarati and Hindi, and works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Pooja uses a gentle, person-centred way of working. Sessions give space to talk and to notice feelings. She aims to adapt each session to what the client needs in the moment rather than follow a rigid plan.
Background and approach
Her background includes a BACP accreditation, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Pooja brings four years of direct counselling experience and additional experience from a long career in corporate and hospitality sectors. That wider work history means she is familiar with different cultures and workplace pressures.
In practice she mixes conversational work with techniques drawn from attachment, mindfulness and cognitive approaches. This can mean exploring past relationships that shape present patterns, learning simple mindfulness exercises, or trying small practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Pooja aims to make sessions straightforward and useful.
She offers flexible formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.
How Pooja's Approaches Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early bonds and how they influence current relationships. Online work can involve talking through patterns that keep repeating and trying new ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes. In sessions clients may learn practical steps to change thinking habits and try them between meetings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people recognise and name emotions in close relationships and to change interaction patterns that cause pain.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Pooja will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest methods that suit your situation. Together you will try techniques and adjust the plan as you learn what works best for you.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let you use visual cues during deeper conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for short check ins, step by step coaching, or when writing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
