Sonam Nagrani, HCPC

Sonam Nagrani is an HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist who combines warmth and professional expertise to create a non-judgemental space for therapy. She works from an integrative perspective, bringing together techniques and ideas from different therapeutic models to suit each person’s unique needs and personality.

With 10 years of experience working across the NHS, private and voluntary sectors, she draws on a broad clinical background while taking time to understand each client as an individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. Sonam recognises how daunting it can feel to seek help and values the step people take toward improving their wellbeing.

She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and confidence, relationship difficulties, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and trauma including complex PTSD, which is a particular area of interest. Sonam invites anyone who is struggling with these issues to reach out and explore whether they might work together to find practical, compassionate ways forward.

Therapeutic approaches and remote care

Sonam combines client-centered work with structured therapies to support emotional change and recovery. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting therapeutic relationship and creating a supportive environment where a person’s priorities and values guide the pace and direction of work. This approach is often helpful for people who need understanding, validation, and a collaborative space to explore difficult emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses practical techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic, and many everyday stressors because it offers clear tools to manage symptoms and build coping skills.

For people affected by trauma and complex PTSD, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be a focused way to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. Sonam integrates EMDR when clinically appropriate and when a client is ready to work on trauma material.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sonam works with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. Online therapy offers practical benefits for this work - video calls allow face-to-face connection, phone sessions provide an alternative when video is not possible, and live chat or text-based messaging add flexibility for check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity of care across locations.
