About Prachi

Prachi Vij is a BACP-registered counsellor with four years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Prachi also lists related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, midlife crisis, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, pregnancy and childbirth, and self-love.

Prachi uses psychodynamic therapy to look at how earlier experiences shape present feelings and behaviours. Sessions involve talking about recurring patterns and the feelings that come up in relationships. She pays attention to the stories people tell about themselves and how those stories influence decisions and reactions.

In practice she helps people notice repeated patterns that cause distress. Conversations may cover formative relationships, cuts or losses that were never fully processed, and the ways shame or guilt show up day to day. The focus is on understanding why things happen, not on quick fixes.

Prachi works collaboratively to help clients articulate what matters to them and what they want to change. She brings a reflective, relational approach that aims to make difficult emotions clearer and more manageable. Sessions are conversational and investigative rather than directive.

Sessions can be conducted in English, Gujarati, Hindi and Punjabi. International clients are accepted. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Psychodynamic approaches and online sessions

Prachi works with psychodynamic therapy, a method that looks at how early relationships and past experiences shape present feelings and behaviour. It helps when repeated patterns, guilt or long-standing hurts keep affecting day-to-day life. Sessions typically focus on the stories clients bring and the emotions that recur in relationships.

In conversation she will help clients notice patterns and link current difficulties to past events or internalised expectations. That way of working can make confusing or painful feelings clearer and easier to talk about. She treats the choice of approach as collaborative and will discuss goals and preferences with each person to find the best fit.

If you are considering online sessions, check the available session formats before you book so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow a steady rhythm of appointments. Some people prefer shorter check-ins when time is tight, while others choose longer sessions for deeper reflection. Confirm current session options and practical arrangements when you complete the matching questionnaire so the format suits your needs.
