About Starnta
Starnta Johal is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She uses a person-centred way of working to help people talk through their feelings. Starnta aims to reach the root of difficult situations and offers short courses or longer-term work depending on need.
Clients can expect a calm, listening approach where the therapist helps them notice patterns in thoughts and behaviour. Starnta draws on several methods alongside person-centred practice to tailor sessions to each person.
Background and approach
She has experience supporting survivors of abuse and has worked with grief and bereavement concerns. Her practice includes helping with depression, anxiety and stress. She also addresses relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strains, anger, addictions and self-esteem.
Starnta works with people facing cultural and multicultural concerns and those coping with separation or life changes. Therapy may touch on attachment issues and trauma-related reactions, including panic and post-traumatic stress. She also supports people experiencing self-harm thoughts, social anxiety, and young adult transitions.
Sessions are offered in English. Starnta holds the NCPS credential and uses a mix of attachment-based, client-centred, cognitive behavioural and trauma-focused ideas in her work. She invites people to take the first step when they feel ready and discusses pacing and goals together.

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
She also integrates cognitive behavioural ideas when practical changes are needed. CBT-style techniques break problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and offer straightforward tools to try between sessions. Together, these approaches aim to balance understanding emotional history with learning helpful day-to-day skills.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Starnta discusses goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapts methods collaboratively. The plan can change as progress is made and new issues arise.
Online work includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a full conversation that mirrors face-to-face work. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to use video or who have limited bandwidth. Live chat and messaging allow for shorter check-ins and flexible contact that can fit around busy schedules. These options make it easier to keep continuity and access support from different places and at different times.
