About Pooja
Pooja P is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of counselling experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, and mood concerns such as depression and bipolar. She also supports those coping with parenting pressures, career challenges, eating and sleeping problems, and the effects of trauma and abuse.
Pooja uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques to open up conversations about strong emotions and recurring patterns. Sessions focus on identifying feelings, looking at how relationships and past experiences shape reactions, and developing practical steps to manage unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Mindfulness and motivational approaches also appear in her work when people want skills for day-to-day coping.
Her background includes many years in corporate and service industries and a qualification in human resources, experience she draws on when addressing workplace stress, career changes and communication problems. She brings this practical perspective into sessions when clients want help with boundaries, decision-making, or career-related stress.
Pooja speaks English, Gujarati and Hindi, and accepts international clients. She describes herself as flexible in how she works and adapts sessions to what each person needs. The first meeting typically looks at immediate concerns and the goals someone wants to try working on.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong emotions and the interaction patterns that keep them stuck. It is often used when relationships and attachment needs are part of the concern, or when someone finds it hard to identify their feelings.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds and present relationships shape reactions and expectations. It can be useful for people wanting to understand repeating patterns, abandonment issues, or difficulties with closeness and trust.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It tends to involve short-term exercises, activity planning and techniques to manage anxiety, low mood, or sleep and eating difficulties.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods feel most relevant to their goals and preferences, and may combine elements from different approaches as the work develops.
Session arrangements should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not specify formats. Online appointments can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel. They also allow quieter check-ins, shorter sessions when needed, and access for international clients without local travel.
