About Puja

Puja Attul is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem and other everyday challenges. She works with people dealing with trauma, addiction, parenting pressures, eating or sleeping difficulties, and life changes. Puja welcomes enquiries from international clients and offers sessions in English.

Puja has 12 years of practice and holds NCPS as a listed credential. She draws on Humanistic ideas alongside cognitive tools so conversations feel warm and practical. Sessions aim to balance emotional understanding with everyday strategies that people can try between meetings.

In the room she listens first, then helps people spot thought patterns that make things harder. That may lead to simple exercises for coping, behaviour changes, or ways to approach difficult conversations. The focus is on small, steady steps rather than quick fixes.

Her approach also pays attention to attachment and how early relationships shape current patterns. This can be useful when facing intimacy issues, abandonment worries, or complex family dynamics. Puja uses this alongside acceptance-based ideas to help people live with difficult feelings while moving toward chosen values.

People who prefer a collaborative, down-to-earth style often find this mix helpful. Sessions are practical and conversational, with room for reflection. To begin, follow the site's Start Therapy process and complete the short matching questionnaire to arrange a first appointment.

How Puja's approaches translate to online work

Puja uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings and still move toward what matters to them. That method supports people facing anxiety, chronic worry, or life transitions by focusing on values and small, committed actions.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach practical strategies. CBT is often helpful for managing anxiety, low mood, sleep and eating problems by breaking issues into thoughts, feelings and behaviours that can be adjusted.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Puja collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. Together they test techniques and adapt them as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions sit alongside family or work commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to help people carry strategies into everyday routines and maintain momentum between meetings.
