About Puja

Puja Attul is a counsellor with 12 years' experience who commonly supports men exploring stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. She works with people facing trauma, low self-esteem, depression, addiction and grief. Puja also helps with intimacy-related worries, sleep and eating problems, and career or life transitions. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Puja practices an integrative approach that blends client-centred ideas with cognitive behavioural techniques. In sessions she aims to be warm and non-judgemental while also offering practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. The work is collaborative - she listens first, then helps people try small, manageable steps between meetings.

Her background spans humanistic and evidence-based methods. That means there is space to talk about feelings and values, alongside exercises to build coping skills. Clients can expect a mix of reflective conversation and clear strategies for everyday problems.

Puja often uses acceptance and commitment ideas alongside attachment-focused ways of thinking about relationships and boundaries. She encourages better self-awareness, healthier patterns with others, and greater confidence in day-to-day life.

People come to her with a wide range of issues including parenting stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related concerns, chronic illness and body image. She aims to help people gain clarity, increase resilience and make practical changes that fit their lives.

How Puja's approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts without getting stuck in them and focus on actions that fit their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current bonds and communication, which can help with intimacy and relationship worries. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre, offering a non-judgemental space to build self-awareness and self-acceptance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Puja aims to figure this out together with each person, matching methods to their goals and preferences. Sessions are collaborative - she listens first and then suggests techniques to try between meetings so people can see what helps in real life.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find remote counselling makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or making attendance simpler when energy is limited. Online work also lets the therapist use practical tools and homework exercises between sessions to support steady progress.
