About Sonam
Sonam Nagrani is a counsellor with ten years of clinical experience who focuses on practical help and gentle, steady support. She works from an integrative stance and listens to each person’s story before shaping sessions around their needs. Sonam speaks English and Hindi and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally.
Sonam has worked across NHS, personal and voluntary services, which gives her a wide range of experience to draw on.
How Sonam works
She commonly supports people dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship issues, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, and work-related concerns. Her approach mixes different therapies to suit the individual.
Techniques include client-centred ways of helping you feel heard, cognitive behavioural tools to change unhelpful thoughts, and mindfulness to manage intense feelings. She also uses dialectical behaviour strategies and EMDR when appropriate for trauma work. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused.
Sonam helps people set small goals, try new skills between sessions, and track what changes. She keeps language plain so people can use what they learn in day-to-day life. People who come to her often want a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through difficult events or long-term worries.
She emphasises collaboration and helps people make choices that suit their life and values.

Online support options
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Client-centred therapy focuses on understanding your experience and helping you feel heard. The counsellor follows your lead, reflects your concerns back, and works to build trust so you can talk about what matters most. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. It often involves short exercises and experiments you can try between sessions. EMDR, when used, helps people process traumatic memories by combining focused attention with guided bilateral stimulation to reduce the intensity of distressing memories.Finding the right approach is a joint effort. The counsellor will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Together you can adjust the plan as you learn what helps most, mixing approaches when needed to match your situation.
Online therapy offers a number of practical benefits. Video calls let you have a session that feels close to face-to-face. Phone sessions can work well when you need a shorter check-in or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for people who prefer typing or want ongoing written support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and can help maintain continuity when life changes.
