About Pooja
Pooja P is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and relationship concerns. She supports work on self-esteem, parenting strain, addictions, and coping with life changes. Pooja also addresses issues such as sleep and eating difficulties, anger, career worries, and the effects of trauma and abuse.
She draws on several therapies in everyday language. Sessions are relaxed and calm. The aim is to give people space to talk and to work at a pace they can manage. Pooja brings four years of counselling experience and holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide her practice.
In sessions she blends motivational interviewing with attachment-focused ideas and practical cognitive tools. This means she helps clients find motivation for change, look at relationship patterns, and try small behaviour changes between meetings. The work is collaborative and goal-focused when people want that, or reflective and exploratory when that suits better.
Pooja’s background includes long experience in corporate and service settings, and she uses that to relate to workplace and cultural stresses. She adapts sessions to each person, using creative ways to make progress. People can expect clear conversation, straightforward goals, and gentle encouragement.
She offers therapy in English, Gujarati and Hindi and is based in the United Kingdom. For people outside the UK, international arrangements are accepted; check details before booking. To start, users follow the site’s Start Therapy steps and match with her via the short questionnaire.

How key approaches guide online work
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way of talking that helps people find their own reasons to change. It focuses on building motivation and small steps forward when someone feels stuck or unsure.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice and shift habits that affect close relationships and emotional safety in connections with others.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behaviour changes. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try approaches together. Clients are invited to give feedback and reshape the plan as therapy proceeds.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of appointments around work or family life and fewer journeys to travel. Online sessions can make shorter check-ins and regular follow-ups simpler. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking to know which formats are offered. -
