About ARPITA

Arpita Ghosal is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with adults facing grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression and major life changes. Her background includes supporting people through relationship and parenting concerns, trauma and intimacy-related issues, and questions about life purpose.

Arpita approaches sessions with a focus on what each person brings. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and helps them notice strengths they can use when things feel difficult. Conversations are practical and aimed at making everyday steps more manageable.

Her work draws on a mix of therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy. She uses these methods to address patterns of thinking, emotional responses and relationship dynamics. This can help when someone is coping with panic, post-traumatic stress, or ongoing worry.

Clients can expect a collaborative pace. The counsellor listens, reflects, and suggests small experiments or exercises to try between sessions. People who feel stuck after a job change, separation, bereavement or health shift may find this approach helpful for exploring what matters next.

Arpita speaks English, Bengali, Hindi and Urdu, and she accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions are provided through a subscription model that may be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online work

Arpita uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters to them and take committed steps in that direction even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and questions about life purpose.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationship patterns affect feelings and reactions. This approach can help with intimacy-related issues, communication problems and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Arpita will discuss the methods that fit a person’s goals and preferences and adjust the plan as sessions progress. That collaborative process helps identify which techniques to use and when to try practical exercises or behaviour changes.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Specific session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people appreciate the convenience of remote sessions for brief check-ins, longer therapeutic work, or scheduling around work and family commitments.
