About Poppy

Poppy Goguelin works on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, parenting and perinatal mental health using a person-centred approach. She practices client-centred therapy and can use mindfulness and solution-focused methods when helpful. Poppy is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years' experience in counselling work in the United Kingdom.

Poppy listens to each person's experience and helps them explore what matters to them. She keeps the focus on the client's perspective and their priorities. Sessions can be more open-ended or more goal-directed depending on what the client prefers.

She has particular interest in women's health and the perinatal period, from conception through the first year after birth. Poppy also works with relationship difficulties and domestic violence or abuse concerns, as well as pregnancy loss and bereavement.

Other areas she helps with include low mood, anger, self-esteem, intimacy-related issues and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with family problems, blended family issues, communication or commitment difficulties, and challenges around fertility or fatherhood.

Poppy uses mindfulness techniques to help reduce stress and support emotional regulation. Solution-focused strategies are available for people who want shorter-term, goal-oriented work. Her overall approach is client-centred, meaning she adapts sessions to the person in front of her and their aims.

To begin, people typically complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Poppy uses client-centred counselling, which focuses on listening and understanding a person's own view of their situation. This approach helps people explore feelings about relationships, parenting and life changes in a conversational way.

She also draws on mindfulness therapy to help people notice and manage stress and strong emotions through simple attention-based exercises. Solution-focused work is available for people who want concrete goals and shorter-term plans to tackle specific issues such as communication problems or coping strategies.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences with the client and agree a way of working together that suits their needs. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Registered or accredited professionals often offer flexible arrangements to help clients maintain regular contact as they work on their concerns.
