About Prachi

Prachi Vij is a counsellor who aims to make starting therapy easier for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about worry, low mood, relationship strain and past hurts. Prachi identifies Trauma and abuse, stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression among the areas she helps with.

She works in English and also speaks Gujarati, Hindi and Punjabi. Prachi uses psychodynamic therapy to help people understand how past experiences influence current feelings and behaviour.

Background and approach

Sessions often look at repeated patterns and the hidden meanings behind emotional reactions. The goal is to help clients notice those patterns and make different choices that feel more helpful. Her background includes clinical and counselling roles in a range of settings across the mental health sector.

Prachi has four years of direct clinical experience and holds BACP membership. That mix of practice and study shapes a reflective approach that balances longer-term personal work with practical concerns. In sessions she encourages a collaborative style - clients set the pace and priorities.

Work may include talking through difficult memories, reflecting on relationship habits, and exploring feelings such as guilt, shame or abandonment. The emphasis is on steady, understandable steps rather than quick fixes. Prachi accepts clients based in the United Kingdom and international clients.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs and routines.

Ways of working Prachi names

Psychodynamic Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Psychodynamic insight and online therapy options

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how earlier relationships and experiences affect present feelings and behaviour. It often involves talking about recurring patterns, memories and the emotions that come up in relationships, which can help with issues like attachment, low self-esteem and post-traumatic stress.

Work in this approach is usually reflective and paced to the person. The therapist and client collaborate to identify what matters most and decide whether to focus on shorter-term goals or deeper personal work. That shared planning helps pick the right balance between exploration and practical coping strategies.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues for a fuller conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the therapeutic relationship central.
