About Poppy
Poppy Goguelin is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with people facing anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, depression and related concerns. Poppy also supports those dealing with parenting challenges and issues connected to trauma and abuse.
She describes her practice as person-centred, which means she pays attention to each person's perspective and priorities. Sessions are conversational and led by what the client brings. If someone prefers, she can shift to a more solution-focused way of working with clear short-term goals.
Poppy has a particular interest in women’s health and perinatal mental health, covering the time from conception through to a year after birth. She also works with people affected by domestic violence and relationship breakdown. Her background includes supporting people through pregnancy loss, grief and other life changes.
Clients can expect straightforward listening and problem-solving where useful. Mindfulness techniques are sometimes used to help manage stress and anxiety in everyday moments. She will work with a person’s goals and adjust the approach as those goals change.
Poppy accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. She notes that session plans can be adapted for people who want practical, goal-led work or for those who prefer a more open, person-led conversation. To begin, clients follow the site matching and booking steps.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Poppy uses a person-centred approach that focuses on the client’s experience. In practice this means the session follows what matters to the person, with the counsellor reflecting and listening closely to help clarify feelings and priorities.She also draws on mindfulness methods to help people notice and manage anxiety, stress and intense emotions in day-to-day life. Simple grounding or breathing practices are examples of things that might be practised and discussed during sessions.
When a quicker, goal-focused option is helpful she can work in a solution-focused way. That approach looks at small, practical steps and what can be changed now to make a situation feel more manageable.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and agree how to proceed. Plans can be adjusted as the work moves forward so methods evolve with the person’s aims.
The profile does not specify which online formats she offers, so confirm the session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time for appointments. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use these practical benefits to help sessions fit everyday life.
