Hi, I’m preeya.
I am a Consultant Counselling Psychologist with over 12 years of experience of working for the NHS in adult mental health services in South Wales and in the last five years in a leading homelessness charity in Cardiff. I have had the privilege of working with young people and adults presenting with a range of varying difficulties from trauma and emotion dysregulation to depression and anxiety. Having trained in a number of evidence based therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Schema Therapy and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), I offer a range of treatment models to suit your individual needs.
I believe that everyone deserves the chance of a brighter and more fulfilling life and with the right skills, resources and support, the possibilities of personal growth and development are limitless.
My Approach
Relationships play an integral part of our makeup, mindset, and overall development throughout our lives. They can make us and they can break us. My philosophy and core value base is to help people towards a journey of self-development by providing a safe and containing space to understand how difficult experiences may have shaped their lives and to teach skills to better enable individuals to live a more fulfilling and nourishing life.

Relational
I work relationally and this means focusing on the relationships we have with ourselves, others and the world around us. I tend to draw upon attachment theories to help better make sense of what people are struggling with.
Trauma informed
Trauma-informed practice is an approach to providing services and support that recognise the widespread impact of trauma on individuals, and it seeks to create an environment where clients feel safe, supported, and empowered. The framework is grounded in understanding how trauma affects people’s lives, to enhance the effectiveness of interventions offered.
