About Prisca

Prisca Coull is a counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. She uses person-centred listening alongside practical techniques to help people who are struggling with sleep, stress, anxiety, depression, relationships and related concerns. She speaks English and Igbo and brings six years of clinical experience to her work.

Her sessions are grounded in empathic listening and reflection. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, focusing on patterns of thinking and behaviour that can make sleep and mood problems worse. She also uses attachment-focused ideas to look at how close relationships and past hurts shape current feelings and reactions.

Prisca trained to postgraduate level in person-centred counselling and has a postgraduate diploma in cognitive-behavioural therapy. She worked in university counselling and in private practice, and has supported pupils with additional needs in school settings. These roles have given her experience with a wide range of life challenges and cultural backgrounds.

In a session she emphasises compassion and helping people make their own choices. Conversations are practical and paced to each person. Plans and strategies are agreed together, so the work fits everyday life and real concerns about sleep, mood or relationships.

She understands therapy can feel hard to start. She encourages small steps, clear goals, and regular review. Where helpful, Prisca blends talking with practical CBT tools to tackle sleep disruption, worry or low mood.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early and close relationships shape current patterns. Online conversations using this approach focus on understanding attachment responses and how they affect sleep, intimacy and stress. Client-centred practice means sessions centre on your concerns, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and reflection to help you clarify what matters and what you want to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) provides practical tools and small experiments to change unhelpful thoughts and routines that keep sleep and anxiety problems going.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together you will try methods that fit your needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as the work progresses.

Confirm available session formats before booking so you know how Prisca offers online support. Many people find remote sessions save travel time and fit more easily into busy days. Other practical benefits include shorter check-ins when needed, easier access from different locations, and the chance to use worksheets or breathing exercises between meetings. If you want to explore how therapeutic approaches work online, the counsellor can outline likely session structure and practical steps during the first appointment.
