Poonam Mehta

UKCP Registered Psychotherapist, Psychologist, EMDR Practitioner

Poonam is an Integrative Psychotherapist who uses an integrative approach to help clients discover and understand their underlying issues. She uses CBT when appropriate. She is an active and empathetic listener with extensive experience in a wide range of issues.

As an integrative psychotherapist, I use different combinations of therapeutic tools and approaches to suit individual needs.

‘Integrative psychotherapy’ is a more progressive form of therapy than traditional singular forms of psychotherapy, drawing elements from different schools of thought to make it a more flexible and inclusive form of treatment that’s suitable for a wide range of emotional health issues.

Poonam previously worked in HR in Kenya with individuals from a less fortunate background which enables her to empathise and fully comprehend people’s experiences – a vital part of psychotherapy.

As a psychotherapist working with addiction, Poonam has engaged with clients to help grow their self-confidence and awareness by pinpointing the root cause of their addiction. She works in the NHS in long and short-term weekly therapy with adults suffering from a variety of problems E.g. anxiety, depression, bereavement). Over the course of sessions, a significant change takes place whereby the functionality of day-to-day tasks become more attainable and the belief and will to progress is strengthened
