About Sujarda
Sujarda Herring is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has five years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns and a wide range of life challenges, including bereavement, trauma and relationship difficulties. Sujarda offers both in-person work from Edinburgh and online support for people across the UK.
She uses an integrative approach that brings together talk-based counselling and practical tools. Sessions begin with a conversation about what matters most and how the client would like to work. Time is adaptable - clients choose how long they want a session to be and how often to meet.
Sujarda draws on client-centred therapy to keep the focus on the person's own priorities and motivations. Mindfulness techniques are used to help with anxious thoughts and sleep problems by teaching simple attention and breathing skills. Solution-focused work helps set short-term, concrete steps for coping with immediate problems.
Hypnotherapy features as an option for people who find guided relaxation and suggestion helpful for habits, sleep or stress. Motivational interviewing supports those looking to make changes in career, health or lifestyle by exploring readiness and building small goals.
Many people contact her when they are facing major life changes, grief, parenting strain or ongoing health issues. She also addresses concerns such as body image, attachment and communication problems. New clients are asked to complete a short questionnaire before arranging their first session.
How counselling approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's priorities at the heart of each session. The counsellor listens for what matters most and reflects that back so clients can decide their next steps. This approach fits well for people who want a respectful space to talk and make sense of their experience.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce the grip of anxious thoughts and improve sleep. These exercises can be practised during or between sessions and are offered as short, repeatable tasks that suit day-to-day life. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes and clear next steps. It helps when the immediate aim is practical coping, such as managing work stress or improving communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options, try different methods and agree what fits the client's needs, goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape sessions over time rather than locking into one way of working from the start.
Confirm the available session formats before booking as these can change. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, offer quicker check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require being on camera, which can help when a shorter or quieter meeting is preferable. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets and short between-session support to suit the online setting.
