Poppy Perrin, BACP, NCPS

Poppy Perrin is a counsellor who draws on several therapy approaches to help people navigate difficult moments. She uses practical tools alongside open conversation so clients can build confidence and cope better with everyday stresses.

Poppy takes an integrative approach, mixing methods to suit each person rather than sticking to one strict model. Sessions aim to be collaborative and down to earth, with time to talk and space to try new ways of managing feelings and behaviours.

Her work covers common issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, compassion fatigue and difficulties around intimacy and relationships.

Additional areas Poppy focuses on include addiction, ADHD, parenting concerns and coping with life changes. She also offers help with long-term health challenges, chronic pain and the strains that come with being a caregiver.

Poppy is a BACP Therapist - Registered Member (MBACP) and an NCPS Therapist - Accredited Member (MNCPS Accred). She has three years of practice experience based in the United Kingdom and runs therapy in a straightforward, person-centred way.

People who prefer practical steps alongside reflective conversation tend to find her style helpful. She works at a pace set by the client and aims to leave people with clearer plans and skills they can use after sessions.

Online approaches and how they can help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with long-term health issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing different behaviours to reduce distress, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods suit the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs evolve.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer talking without being on camera or who need to join from different locations across the United Kingdom. Registered or accredited professionals will work with clients to choose a practical setup that fits everyday life.
