About Prisca
Counsellor Prisca Coull, BACP, has six years' experience working with adults and young people in the United Kingdom. She lists relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, stress and anxiety among the main concerns she helps with. She also supports people facing addiction, parenting strain, LGBT issues, workplace pressures and many other life changes.
Prisca combines a person-centred way of working with cognitive approaches. That means she listens without judgement and helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Sessions are conversational and practical. People can expect reflective listening, clearer thinking tools, and gentle challenge when needed.
Her background includes university counselling, private practice with GP referrals, and work for employment and organisational referrals. She has also provided support in schools and on a children's helpline. These roles have given experience with a wide range of concerns and cultural perspectives.
Credentials include a postgraduate diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, a postgraduate diploma in Person-Centred Counselling, a master’s degree, and a BSc in Public Administration. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Sessions aim to help people make clearer decisions and manage day-to-day coping. Prisca uses straightforward language and practical strategies alongside reflective listening. If you are thinking about counselling, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging a first session.
Approaches used in online counselling and what they do
Prisca draws on Attachment-Based therapy in some work, which looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and emotional responses. This can help with intimacy-related problems, attachment issues and feelings of abandonment.She also uses Client-Centred therapy, which centres on reflective listening and helping people find their own answers through supportive dialogue. That approach is often useful for grief, low self-esteem and situations where someone needs space to talk things through.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Prisca will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree how to combine methods so the sessions feel useful. Decisions about methods are made collaboratively rather than fixed in advance.
