About ARPITA

Arpita Ghosal helps people work on grief, self-esteem, stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting and wider life changes using person-centred approaches. She uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in sessions. Arpita is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.

She sees therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s experience guides the work. Sessions focus on practical steps and talking through feelings and reactions. That may include noticing unhelpful patterns, practising small behavioural changes, and exploring how past relationships affect present ones.

Arpita draws on a mix of approaches. Client-centred work gives time for people to tell their story and be heard. CBT offers tools for managing anxiety, panic and low mood by looking at thoughts and behaviours. Attachment-based ideas are used where relationship patterns and intimacy concerns are important.

Her practice also covers grief, trauma and abuse, body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, and issues such as guilt, shame and forgiveness. She supports work on career decisions, life purpose and coping with big transitions.

Sessions are carried out in line with her BACP registration. She speaks English, Bengali, Hindi and Urdu, and accepts international clients. To begin, clients follow the site process to match with a counsellor and book an initial session.

How Arpita uses different approaches in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings and to move towards values-based actions. It can help with anxiety, low mood and making changes after loss.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and testing small changes. It is often used for panic, social anxiety and managing stress.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from past relationships and how they affect current connections and intimacy issues. It can be helpful where communication problems or relationship worries are prominent.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and agree which methods to try. That choice is reviewed together as therapy progresses, so the plan can change if something is not helping.

Check the available session options before you book, as this profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins, or letting people join without being on camera. Registered and accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to keep sessions manageable for clients.
