About ARPITA
BACP. Four years of professional experience. ARPITA GHOSAL works with grief, self-esteem, stress, anxiety and related concerns using counselling approaches she lists from her practice.
Arpita frames counselling around the client as expert in their own story. She emphasises practical conversation and aims to help people notice strengths they already have. Sessions focus on everyday problems such as low confidence, motivation, coping with loss and relationship strain.
Her background includes work with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting matters and career concerns. She also gives attention to attachment issues, body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, and feelings such as guilt and shame.
Arpita uses approaches drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. These inform how she structures sessions, how she explores patterns, and how she helps people practise different ways of responding to painful thoughts and feelings.
She offers counselling in English and in Bengali, Hindi and Urdu. Sessions are held in the United Kingdom and she accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled via the See online counselling options button on the site.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and focus on actions that match what matters to them; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early connections shape current ways of relating, which can help with intimacy and communication problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and practising new responses, commonly used for panic, social anxiety and depression.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice can change as sessions progress and is decided collaboratively.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity of care when life is busy, and a counsellor can adapt tasks and exercises to suit an online setting.
