Prachi Vij
Insightful psychodynamic counsellor for lasting change
About Prachi
Prachi Vij follows a clear clinical path into counselling and psychotherapy. She is a member of the BACP, and brings four years of direct therapeutic practice to her work in the United Kingdom. Prachi speaks English, Gujarati, Hindi and Punjabi and offers sessions to people both in the UK and internationally.
She uses psychodynamic therapy to help people see how past experiences shape present feelings and relationships. Sessions are aimed at uncovering patterns that repeat in everyday life.
Background and approach
The goal is to make those patterns easier to understand and change when they no longer serve someone well. Prachi works in a calm, empathic way and focuses on what each person needs right now. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, mood concerns and low self-esteem.
Relationship difficulties, trauma and issues around attachment and abandonment are also central to her practice. Other areas she addresses include body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, loneliness, life purpose and pregnancy-related concerns. She also supports work on post-traumatic stress and midlife transitions.
Prachi offers sessions in several formats, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to the therapist's availability. Costs vary by location and the service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Psychodynamic approaches and online therapy
Psychodynamic therapy helps people notice patterns that repeat in their feelings and relationships by looking at how earlier experiences have shaped current reactions. It often focuses on emotional themes and repeated ways of relating so someone can better understand why they respond as they do, which can be useful for anxiety, relationship difficulties and low self-esteem.In sessions Prachi offers a reflective space where the two of you will work together to identify goals and test what feels helpful. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process and she will adapt how sessions proceed based on a person's needs, preferences and progress over time.
Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, which gives practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is preferred, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day, live chat can suit shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments while keeping the focus on therapeutic change.
