Snigdha Jindal

Snigdha Jindal is a counsellor and psychotherapist who blends person-centred care with practical therapeutic techniques. She speaks English and Hindi and draws on four years of international experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties.

She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can move at their own pace. Sessions aim to help people feel heard and understood while they talk through what is troubling them. Snigdha pays attention to trauma, mood instability and the longer-term effects of hurt and loss.

Her background includes an MSc in Person-Centred Counselling from the University of Aberdeen and degrees in Clinical Psychology from India. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Her approach mixes person-centred work with elements of cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic ideas. That combination is used to help with things like unhelpful thought patterns, relationship strains, persistent low mood and the impact of past trauma.

Snigdha has worked with people from many different backgrounds, including NHS staff, migrants and survivors of domestic and sexual abuse. Outside her practice she volunteers locally and continues clinical supervision and personal therapy to reflect on her work.

If someone wants to begin, the usual next step is to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

The person-centred approach focuses on listening, empathy and building a trusting relationship so people feel able to talk about loneliness, emptiness or relationship worry. It helps create space to name feelings and decide on next steps.

Cognitive behavioural techniques look at patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going. These techniques can help with anxiety, low mood and repetitive negative thinking by practising small, manageable changes between sessions.

Psychodynamic ideas help make sense of recurring themes and emotional patterns that may come from earlier relationships or losses. This can be useful when feelings of abandonment or emptiness repeat over time.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose which methods to use based on their goals, needs and preferences, and will adjust the mix as therapy progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as current options are not specified here. Many people find online work helpful for fitting therapy into their week, reducing travel and keeping continuity when life is busy. It can also allow shorter check-ins on difficult days or make it easier to maintain regular appointments alongside work and family commitments.
