About Puja
Puja Attul is a counsellor with 12 years of experience who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She uses a warm, non-judgemental style to help people feel heard and safe while they talk through difficult issues.
Puja also offers support for concerns such as trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, grief, addiction, eating and sleeping problems, and coping with life changes. She practices in the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS credential, which is shown here as supplied.
Background and approach
Puja blends humanistic ideas with structured techniques. That means she helps people explore feelings and values while also introducing practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Sessions focus on building self-awareness and everyday coping skills.
Puja aims to help people notice what matters to them, then take small steps towards those values. She uses exercises from cognitive behavioural work alongside an empathic, client-centred conversation style. Puja adapts her approach to each person.
Some sessions might focus on understanding attachment and relationships, while others concentrate on strategies for anxiety, mood or addictive behaviours. She emphasises collaboration and clear, simple techniques that people can use between sessions. Her background includes long-term practice combining Humanistic and CBT methods.
That mix is intended to support both emotional exploration and practical problem-solving. People who want a balance of listening and active skill-building may find this style helpful.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take committed action in those directions, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses, and it can help with intimacy, trust and connection issues. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a warm, non-judgemental conversation where the counsellor listens deeply and supports the person to find their own solutions and self-acceptance.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Puja will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying different ways of working and adjusting what happens in sessions to suit what helps most.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, avoid travel time, and keep contact consistent when circumstances change. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by phone when time is limited, while others find video sessions better for face-to-face conversation. A collaborative conversation about practical arrangements helps ensure sessions suit everyday life and needs.
