About John
John Chauhan offers a direct, human-centred way of working for people feeling overwhelmed by life. He places the client at the centre of each session and aims to help them find their own strengths. John writes plainly and listens with compassion to understand what matters to you now.
He draws on lived experience with trauma, complex post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety and self-harm to inform his approach. That personal background helps him relate to people describing similar struggles without assuming every story is the same.
Background and approach
John blends different methods to meet each person's needs, using what works rather than following a single rulebook. Sessions can involve compassionate listening, practical techniques for anxiety, mindfulness exercises, imagery work, and suggestions to improve daily routines and hobbies. He regularly supports people managing stress, grief, relationship difficulties, addictions and sleep problems, as well as concerns about intimacy, self-esteem and career changes.
He also focuses on guilt and shame, young adult issues, self-harm, self-love and compassion fatigue. John has four years' experience and holds NCPS as a credential. He practises from the United Kingdom and works in English.
He aims to be straightforward about whether his skills match a person's needs and will recommend other support if that would be better.

Approaches John lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
He combines that human-centred stance with practical tools when relevant. This might include straightforward anxiety techniques, guided imagery or mindfulness exercises to try between sessions. Finding the right mix is collaborative - the client and therapist decide together what feels most useful for ongoing work.
Online therapy with John is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Video sessions are helpful for fuller conversation and exercises that use visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, quick reflections or for people who find typing more comfortable.
These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, handle sudden changes, and continue work even when in-person meetings are difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt each format to the client's goals and practical circumstances.
