Snigdha Jindal, BACP

Snigdha Jindal is a bilingual counsellor and psychotherapist based in Aberdeen, United Kingdom, bringing four years of international experience in counselling, psychotherapy, and clinical psychology. She creates a warm, empathic, and non-judgmental space where people can explore their concerns at a pace that feels right for them, offering attentive listening and thoughtful responses that aim to support insight and healing.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Her training includes an MSc in Person-Centred Counselling from the University of Aberdeen and a dual bachelor and master degree in Clinical Psychology from India - qualifications that combine academic study with practical clinical training. Her practice weaves together Person-Centred principles with elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-informed care, adapting techniques to suit each person’s needs.

Snigdha has worked with adults from diverse backgrounds, including NHS professionals, immigrants, asylum seekers, and survivors of domestic and sexual abuse, addressing issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, and depression. Additional focus areas include attachment and family problems, codependency, chronic illness, and a range of relationship and identity concerns.

Clients often describe her as calm, grounded, compassionate, and deeply attuned. She follows the BACP ethical framework, maintains ongoing clinical supervision and personal therapy, and volunteers with local organisations supporting people affected by trauma and discrimination. Outside of work she values mindfulness, riverside walks along the Dee, cooking, and time with loved ones. If someone feels ready to take a step toward reflection or change, Snigdha would be honoured to walk alongside them.

Person-Centred and evidence-based techniques delivered online

Person-Centred therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgmental space where the person’s own experience guides the pace of change. It is helpful for people seeking greater self-understanding, emotional support, and improved relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that explores links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical strategies to manage anxiety, low mood, and stress-related problems. Trauma-informed care recognises the impact of traumatic experiences and emphasises safety, choice, and collaboration while addressing trauma-related symptoms and recovery needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Snigdha works collaboratively with each person to identify which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adapts methods as progress unfolds so the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with a licensed professional offers practical flexibility - sessions by video or phone, and options for live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and geographic constraints. These options can increase access to consistent support, help maintain momentum between sessions, and allow therapists and clients to focus on meaningful change in ways that suit the individual.
