About Poppy
Poppy Noy is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with five years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem issues and coping with life changes. She also addresses related concerns such as communication and control problems, substance use, eating and food-related issues, and mood difficulties.
Poppy aims for clear, practical conversations rather than clinical jargon. She listens to what matters now and helps people break worries into manageable steps. Sessions focus on day-to-day challenges like motivation, confidence and handling change after major life events.
Her background includes work with people affected by loss and traumatic experiences, and with those who are navigating transitions such as new parenthood or recovery from substance difficulties. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide talking, planning and skill-building that support coping and decision-making.
Poppy pays attention to how stress and unhelpful habits build up, and she works with each person to identify small changes that can reduce overwhelm. Practical tools and reflective discussion are both part of the process. She encourages straightforward goals and regular review so work in sessions links to life outside the room.
If you are in early adulthood and feeling behind, uncertain or overwhelmed by new responsibilities, Poppy offers focused support for those concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and she practises in the United Kingdom. To begin, follow the site steps to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Evidence-based approaches and online counselling
Poppy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer thinking. Cognitive-style approaches help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and develop alternative ways of responding. These methods are often used for anxiety, low mood and obsessive thinking by teaching new ways to test and reframe thoughts.She also draws on trauma-informed approaches that prioritise safety and pacing. This work helps when past events continue to affect emotion, behaviour or relationships, and it usually involves gradual, paced processing alongside grounding and coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Poppy will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels manageable, and then agree a plan together. That collaborative process means techniques can shift as needs change.
The practical benefits of online counselling are about fitting therapy into everyday life. Online sessions can reduce travel time and make it easier to attend around study or work. Different session styles may help - for example shorter check-ins for busy weeks, or camera-off phone conversations when bandwidth is limited - so confirm the exact session options offered before you book.
