Prerna Nautiyal

Prerna Nautiyal helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain and issues around identity. She also supports clients facing addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, eating or sleeping problems, low self-esteem and career stress. Prerna works with people managing life changes, ADHD and mood conditions such as bipolar. She practices with respect, sensitivity and compassion and keeps the first conversations straightforward and focused on immediate needs.

Prerna shapes each session around what the individual says they need. Conversations are practical and paced to suit someone juggling work and family life. She listens for patterns in problems and works with clients to try new ways of relating to difficult feelings or habits. This can include looking at personal stories, body-based responses, and present-moment awareness.

Her approach draws on client-centred ideas, mindfulness, narrative and somatic techniques, and trauma-focused work. These methods are used to help people understand how past experiences affect current choices and relationships. Sessions can include gentle, structured exercises or open talking depending on what feels most useful.

Prerna has five years of professional experience and holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She offers appointments from the United Kingdom and speaks English, Bengali and Hindi. If someone needs help fitting therapy around other commitments, she asks clients to discuss available times so they can find a workable plan together.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and pace. The counsellor listens closely and reflects what matters to the client, helping them find their own solutions and build confidence. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and ease intense emotions, which can help with anxiety, stress and sleep problems.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss which methods feel most helpful and adjust them over time to match the client's goals, preferences and day-to-day constraints. This exploration is part of the early sessions rather than a one-time decision.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online or in-person options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy around work or caring responsibilities, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue with therapy while living in different places, which is why international clients can be considered. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists will work with each client to arrange times that suit their schedule.
