About Prisca

Prisca Coull is a counsellor and psychotherapist who helps people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety. She also supports those dealing with addictions, LGBT concerns, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, anger, career questions and coping with life changes. Prisca works from a person-centred viewpoint and combines it with cognitive behavioural methods to suit each person she meets.

She trained at postgraduate level in cognitive behavioural therapy, holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling and has a Master’s degree. Prisca is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and has six years’ experience in counselling and psychotherapy.

Her background includes work in university counselling services, private practice taking GP and organisation referrals, and pupil support roles where she offered counselling to children and ran helpline support. Travelling and living in several countries has influenced her outlook and how she relates to different ways of being with others.

In sessions she listens and reflects with warmth and non-judgement. She helps people talk through difficult emotions, make practical changes and develop clearer choices. Conversations and tools are tailored to the issue at hand, whether that is addressing unhelpful thinking patterns, strengthening attachment and relationship skills, or making sense of loss.

Prisca offers a calm, direct style that aims to empower people to take small steps forward. She encourages clients to set goals together and to build strategies that fit day-to-day life.

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape how people connect now. It helps with intimacy concerns, attachment issues and patterns that repeat in close relationships. Client-centred therapy places the person’s own experience at the centre and uses empathic listening and reflection to help them make sense of feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) examines unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and offers practical steps to change them, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work together with the client to identify goals, try methods and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative way of working means techniques can be blended or changed as needs develop.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people access a therapist who understands Service and civilian life from anywhere in the United Kingdom or internationally, subject to scheduling and compatibility with the client’s needs.
