About ARPITA
ARPITA GHOSAL is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She focuses on supporting people through depression alongside issues such as grief, self-esteem, stress and anxiety. She speaks English, Bengali, Hindi and Urdu and works with international clients by video, phone, chat or messaging.
Her style is straightforward and respectful. She treats each person as the expert on their life and looks for strengths to build on.
Background and approach
Sessions are aimed at helping people make small, practical changes that add up over time. In sessions she may use cognitive behavioural techniques to notice thought and behaviour patterns that keep someone stuck. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take meaningful action, even when feelings are hard.
Attachment-based ideas guide work on how relationships and early experiences affect current patterns. People often come to her for help with relationship struggles, parenting pressures, career transitions or the weight of past trauma and abuse. She also supports those coping with panic, social anxiety, body image concerns and feelings of guilt or shame.
Work can include safety planning, grounding skills and paced processing of difficult memories when appropriate. Arpita holds BACP registration, which is listed here as a credential. She offers sessions in multiple formats to suit different needs, and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
To start, a short questionnaire helps match clients and then appointments are arranged according to availability.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses practical exercises and experiments to change patterns that maintain anxiety, panic or low mood. Attachment-based ideas are also used to look at how past relationships influence current patterns and closeness with others.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and comfort level, and may blend approaches as those needs change over time.
Online sessions allow flexibility for people who need different ways to connect. Video calls let therapists and clients see non-verbal cues, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
