Rajitha Cruz
Calm, practical counselling for real-life problems
About Rajitha
Rajitha Cruz offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, loss, relationship strains and other difficult moments. She is straightforward and warm, and she aims to make conversations feel manageable. Sessions are focused on what matters to the person sitting across from her.
Rajitha draws on a mix of approaches so sessions are adapted to each person's needs. That might mean talking through unhelpful thinking patterns, reflecting on emotions that feel stuck, or setting small, doable goals for change.
Background and approach
She pays attention to patterns that come from early relationships and to how past hurts affect day-to-day life. Her approach emphasises listening without judgement and helping people become more aware of how they respond to stress. Practical tools and short-term strategies are offered when useful.
At the same time she makes space to look deeper at the roots of recurring problems. Rajitha completed counselling training through the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body course and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She keeps learning through further training to broaden what she can offer.
Sessions are available in English and Tamil. Rajitha accepts people from the United Kingdom and international clients, and tailors how she works to the individual’s situation and goals.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online counselling
Client-centred work focuses on listening and understanding the person as a whole, helping them feel heard and supported while they identify their own goals and values. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, offers simple exercises and ways to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past relationships and early patterns influence current reactions and can help make sense of recurring difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their needs, goals and preferences and together choose or blend methods that feel helpful. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as progress is made.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls let the conversation feel close to an in-person session while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, brief reflections or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family or travel commitments.
