Prisca Coull
Compassionate counsellor for relationship and life challenges
About Prisca
Prisca Coull helps people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety. She also supports those dealing with addiction, intimacy concerns, sleep or eating problems, parenting pressures, anger, career questions and major life changes. Prisca is a BACP counsellor with six years' experience and offers sessions in English and Igbo.
Her style is straightforward and warm. She listens, reflects and offers practical steps alongside emotional support.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around what each person brings rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Prisca encourages people to take small, manageable steps so they feel more in control. Prisca combines person-centred counselling with cognitive behavioural therapy.
That means she focuses on empathic listening and on noticing thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. She also draws on attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas to look at how relationships affect feelings and behaviour. She has worked in university counselling, independent practice and with referrals from GPs and employers.
Earlier roles included supporting pupils with additional needs and providing counselling through a children's helpline, experiences that broadened her outlook on different ways of being with others. Sessions are tailored to each person's goals and strengths. Prisca aims to help people find clearer direction, improve relationships and build practical coping skills.
She welcomes people from different backgrounds and will work with international clients by arrangement.

How Prisca's approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in trust, closeness and conflict, and try new ways of relating in everyday life.Client-centred therapy relies on empathic listening and acceptance to help people feel heard and to make their own choices. That approach works well online through reflective conversation and gentle pacing so each person sets the agenda.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses short, practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT tools adapt well to video or messaging formats, with worksheets, homework and brief check-ins between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and adjust methods as the work progresses so the plan fits the individual's life.
Online formats offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier with limited bandwidth, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflections between meetings. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
