About Puja

Puja Attul is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, parenting pressures, anxiety and relationship worries. She works with people who are dealing with grief, low self‑esteem, trauma and addiction concerns. Puja brings a calm, practical presence and aims to help clients find small, useful changes they can use day to day.

Puja has 12 years of experience and holds NCPS as a credential. She draws on humanistic ideas to create a warm, non-judgemental space for talking things through.

Background and approach

In that space clients can explore feelings, notice patterns, and build clearer self‑understanding. Alongside that reflective work she uses cognitive behavioural methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and try out different behaviours. Those techniques are used to form simple coping strategies for anxiety, low mood, sleeping problems and parenting stress.

Her style is collaborative and down to earth. Sessions are practical and conversational, with room for emotional processing and skills practice. Puja aims to help people gain clearer goals and steps for change.

Her practice also addresses areas such as attachment issues, caregiving stress, body image, and coping with life changes. For people dealing with intimate concerns, identity questions, or career strain, she offers focused support and tools to make everyday life more manageable.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online convenience

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps, which can help when life feels overwhelming or direction is unclear. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts, feelings and behaviours into manageable parts to test unhelpful thinking and build new coping habits. Client‑Centred Therapy offers a warm, non‑judgemental space where the counsellor reflects and listens to help people deepen self‑understanding and acceptance.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Puja will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit the client's goals, preferences and practical needs. Together they will review what helps and adjust the plan if something feels off or unhelpful.

Online therapy offers flexible options to fit different routines. Video calls allow face‑to‑face discussion and shared exercises, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or visual focus is not needed, and live chat or text‑based messaging can support quick check‑ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to keep therapy going around work, childcare and travel commitments, while still using the same therapeutic approaches to make steady progress.
