About Poppy

Poppy Goguelin is a BACP counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress and relationship worries. She describes her approach as warm and person-centred, listening to each person's experience and tailoring support to their needs. Poppy has five years of experience and works with issues such as depression, grief, parenting strains and trauma-related concerns.

She pays particular attention to women's health and perinatal mental health, the time from conception through to a year after birth. She also supports people affected by domestic violence and relationship problems, and can talk through pregnancy loss and related grief.

Poppy aims to offer sessions that feel friendly and respectful of each person's viewpoint. She will listen first and then work alongside the client to set goals or follow a more open-ended, person-centred process. If someone prefers a shorter, goal-focused route she can shape sessions around practical steps and achievable targets.

Her work includes support for common life struggles such as low self-esteem, anger, intimacy-related issues and coping with major changes. She also addresses specific concerns like fertility issues, blended family challenges and communication problems within relationships.

Poppy accepts people living in the United Kingdom and also works with international clients in English. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth, aimed at helping people make steady, manageable changes to feel more able in day-to-day life.

How Poppy's approaches translate to online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's view. The therapist offers empathy and follows the person's pace, which can help with anxiety, low mood and relationship worries.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily feelings without judgement. It can be useful for stress, panic-like symptoms and for coping with strong emotions.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals. It suits people who prefer a shorter, forward-looking approach to specific problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and the issues that matter most, and together they will decide which methods to use. This makes the process collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.

Confirm the available session options before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera, or schedule appointments that fit around work and family commitments.
