About Poppy
Poppy Perrin is a counsellor who brings three years of professional experience to her practice. She uses an integrative approach that draws on several therapy methods to match each session to the person's needs. Poppy aims to make therapy collaborative and down to earth, focusing on practical tools as well as talking through feelings.
She holds BACP status as a registered member and is an accredited member of the NCPS.
Background and approach
Poppy creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak openly. Sessions combine listening with clear strategies to manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also addresses trauma, grief, compassion fatigue and challenges around intimacy and relationships in one-to-one work.
Her approach adapts techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment work. That means helping people notice unhelpful patterns, try small behaviour changes, and clarify what matters most to them. Practical steps and gentle exploration sit alongside each other.
Poppy also supports people dealing with addictions, eating and sleeping issues, anger, parenting strains and career concerns. She offers guidance around long-term conditions, caregiving stress and blended family challenges. The aim is steady, realistic progress rather than quick fixes.
Sessions are offered in English and take place within the United Kingdom. Poppy works with adults on matters such as coping with life changes, ADHD-related difficulties, and building confidence in everyday life.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences in early sessions and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted as you go along to suit how you respond and what you need.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online work can allow shorter check-ins or longer exploratory sessions depending on what suits your week, and the therapist will help you decide how best to arrange sessions around everyday life.
