About ARPITA
Arpita Ghosal is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and has four years of professional experience. She focuses on practical, easy-to-follow support for people facing grief, low self-esteem, anxiety and life changes.
She uses straightforward, person-centred conversations so people can name what matters most to them. Sessions aim to build on each person's strengths and return a sense of agency when things feel overwhelming. Arpita encourages small, doable steps rather than big, sudden shifts.
Background and approach
Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at feelings and how they shape relationships and inner life. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people make meaning and change patterns that cause distress. Arpita commonly helps with stress, panic attacks, depression, trauma and grief.
She also supports people coping with parenting strains, relationship problems, communication difficulties, and questions about life purpose and self-worth. She offers sessions in English, Bengali, Hindi and Urdu, and accepts international clients. Practical details such as session format and scheduling are arranged when someone begins the matching and booking process.

Online support
Approaches that shape online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding and shifting emotional responses. It helps people notice patterns in their feelings and how those patterns affect relationships and day-to-day wellbeing.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them, and choosing actions that match personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and finding direction after life changes.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and current relationship patterns to explain why certain situations feel threatening or painful. It aims to build more supported ways of relating to others and to oneself.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as sessions progress. This is a collaborative process where methods are chosen to fit the person, not the other way round.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives or who cannot attend in person. Video calls allow face-to-face dialogue and emotional connection. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing, need flexibility across a day, or want to reflect between messages. Registered or accredited professionals use these formats to make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into everyday routines.
