About Prisca

Prisca Coull is a counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom. She helps people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, anxiety, low self-esteem and stress. She also supports those dealing with addiction, parenting pressures, career dilemmas, ADHD and issues linked to adoption and foster care.

She works from a person-centred starting point, offering empathic listening, reflection and a calm space to talk things through. Prisca combines that human-centred stance with cognitive-behavioural ideas to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviours that get in the way. Sessions are shaped around what the client needs rather than a fixed formula.

Her background includes six years of clinical experience across university counselling, private practice and work with employment and GP referrals. She has also supported school pupils with additional needs and provided counselling for a children's helpline, which informs her practical understanding of different life stages and difficulties.

Prisca holds a postgraduate diploma in cognitive-behavioural therapy, a Master’s degree and a postgraduate diploma in person-centred counselling. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She can work in English and Igbo and has lived and travelled in several countries, which contributes to a flexible, culturally aware style. If you prefer to start by explaining a single issue or want a broader focus, she will shape sessions to match your goals and pace.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand connection issues, abandonment fears and intimacy problems in everyday terms. Client-centred therapy centres on empathic listening and reflection so the person feels heard and can find their own answers; this approach suits people who want a supportive, non-directive space. Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping strategies.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods together. That collaborative exploration helps tailor sessions so they meet real-life needs rather than following a fixed programme.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and daily life. It can reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Please confirm the current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Registered or accredited professionals can help you choose the session rhythm and tools that suit your schedule and needs.
