About Puja
Puja Attul is a counsellor with 12 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and a wide range of emotional concerns. She works in a direct and compassionate way, offering practical tools and a listening space. Puja uses simple language and aims to help people make changes that fit their daily lives.
She combines humanistic ideas with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, so sessions balance listening with hands-on techniques.
Background and approach
That means plenty of space to talk about feelings alongside work on unhelpful thinking and behaviour. This mix is intended to build resilience and give steps people can try between meetings. Puja also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas when they suit a person’s goals.
She focuses on building self-awareness, exploring values and improving how people relate to others. Sessions can include practical coping strategies for sleep, eating, anger and stress issues. People often come with concerns such as depression, addictions, intimacy-related worries, parenting strain, career stress, trauma and compassion fatigue.
Puja adapts her approach to the issue and the person, offering simpler techniques for immediate relief and deeper work when needed. Her aim is to support people to gain clarity, strengthen confidence and manage life changes. The work is collaborative - Puja and the person decide together what to try and how to measure progress.
This keeps therapy focused and relevant to everyday life.

How Puja works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then try out methods together. This makes sessions collaborative and tailored to the person's needs.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Many people find online therapy easier to fit around work and family life, reduces travel time and lets them use practical tools between sessions. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that are easier to schedule during a busy day.
