About Poppy
Poppy Goguelin is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of practice. She focuses on issues young adults commonly face, including stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, parenting concerns, depression and trauma. Poppy also lists ADHD and a range of intimacy and family-related concerns as areas she supports people with.
Her style is person-centred, which means conversations start from how the client sees their situation. She listens and reflects so people can make sense of their feelings. When a clearer plan suits someone, she can use solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and review progress.
Poppy has a particular interest in women's health and perinatal mental health, covering the time from conception through the first year after birth. She also works with people affected by domestic violence and relationship breakdown, and supports those dealing with pregnancy loss, grief and other family strains.
Sessions aim to be conversational and practical. She uses mindfulness exercises at times to help manage stress and anxiety and to build pause and perspective in difficult moments. Clients who prefer goal-driven work can agree a plan and steps to try between meetings.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and are handled through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book their first session.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Poppy uses person-centred counselling which focuses on listening and reflecting the client’s experience. This approach helps people examine their feelings and make changes at their own pace, useful for anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns.She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help with stress and emotional overwhelm. These are simple practices that build attention and calm, and can be practised between sessions to support everyday life.
Solution-focused methods are used when someone wants clear goals and short-term steps. This approach concentrates on what is already working and on small changes that can make daily life more manageable.
Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. Poppy will discuss goals, needs and preferences and agree a way of working together. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as you learn what helps.
