Sonam Nagrani
Compassionate HCPC-registered therapist focused on progress
About Sonam
Sonam Nagrani is an HCPC-registered practitioner with ten years' experience across NHS, personal and voluntary settings. She brings that practical background to each session while getting to know the person in front of her. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental, and she encourages small steps that build confidence over time.
Sonam helps people who are struggling with stress and anxiety, low mood, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. She also supports concerns such as panic attacks, post-traumatic stress and workplace problems.
Background and approach
She speaks English and Hindi and works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally. In sessions she uses a mix of talking therapy approaches to suit the person. That can include client-centred methods that focus on the person's own goals, cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking, or mindfulness practices to reduce stress.
She may also draw on dialectical behaviour ideas and EMDR when those fit the presenting problem. Her style is practical and collaborative. Sonam listens first, then proposes simple, doable strategies.
She aims for clear goals and checks in regularly so progress is obvious rather than vague. People who prefer an encouraging, straightforward therapist may find her approach helpful. She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat or messaging, and works with people from different backgrounds who want to address mental health, relationship or life transition concerns.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and pace, with the therapist offering empathic listening and reflective responses to help people find their own solutions. It suits people who need a supportive space to make decisions or clarify values.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, works on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioural experiments. It is useful for anxiety, depression, panic attacks and workplace stress where clear steps and homework can make a difference.
Many of these approaches can be adapted to video and phone sessions, and techniques such as guided mindfulness or structured CBT tasks are easy to use online. The therapist will discuss options and help decide which approach fits best based on the person's needs, goals and preferences in a collaborative way.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while using the therapeutic methods that suit them.
