Poppy Perrin trained as a counsellor and has three years of clinical experience. She works in the United Kingdom and offers an open, non-judgemental space where people can speak honestly about stress, anxiety, depression and other struggles. Poppy aims to make therapy feel collaborative and straightforward so people can begin to make small changes straight away.

Her approach mixes ideas from different therapies to suit each person. Sessions focus on what someone wants to change and on simple tools they can use between meetings.

Background and approach

Poppy helps people understand patterns that keep problems going, and she supports practical steps towards feeling steadier. She often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and act towards them, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationship patterns or early experiences are part of the difficulty.

Poppy works with a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, addictions, parenting stresses, and career-related problems. She also supports people dealing with body image, chronic illness and codependency, among other issues. Her professional memberships include BACP - Registered Member (MBACP) and NCPS - Accredited Member (MNCPS Accred).

Sessions are held in English and international clients are not currently accepted. To begin, people follow the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How Poppy’s approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions that match those values. It suits people feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. It is useful for stress, sleep problems and repetitive negative thinking. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns and early experiences to understand how those keep shaping reactions now, which can help with intimacy and communication issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Poppy will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working together. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to match what is helping most.

If you are considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking to confirm formats available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that talking by video or phone lets them practise new skills in everyday life and keeps progress steady between meetings.
