About Sonam
Sonam Nagrani is a Clinical Psychologist with HCPC registration and ten years of experience in NHS, private and voluntary settings in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and trauma. She also supports those thinking about life purpose and coping with major life changes.
Sonam draws on a range of approaches to suit each person she meets. She spends time listening to how a problem affects daily life. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, along with thinking through patterns that keep problems repeating.
People come to her with issues such as panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, workplace problems and struggles after divorce or separation. She also addresses communication problems, dissociation, domestic violence, guilt and shame, hoarding and social anxiety. She notes a particular interest in trauma and complex post-traumatic stress.
Her way of working tends to combine client-centred listening with structured techniques. This can include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) tools to change unhelpful thoughts, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation, and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) when trauma memories are part of the difficulty.
Sessions are offered in English and Hindi and Sonam accepts international clients. To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Sonam uses different approaches in online sessions
Sonam commonly blends Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Client-Centred work means the therapist listens closely and helps people decide what matters most to work on. CBT supplies structured tools to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can help with anxiety, depression and workplace stress.She also uses Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT techniques teach ways to manage intense feelings and improve communication when relationships are under strain. When trauma memories are central, EMDR can be part of the plan to reduce the influence of those memories on daily life.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Sonam will discuss goals, past experience of therapy and practical preferences, then test methods together. That way the approach can be adjusted as work progresses rather than fixed at the start.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking. The platform asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time so sessions are more practical alongside everyday life.
