About Prachi
Prachi Vij is a counsellor who offers psychodynamic-informed therapy to people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression or painful relationship patterns. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works in the United Kingdom. She speaks English, Gujarati, Hindi and Punjabi.
Prachi focuses on understanding how early experiences shape current feelings and relationships. Sessions look at repeating patterns and unspoken meanings that influence mood and behaviour.
Background and approach
Conversations are calm and reflective, aimed at helping people notice and name difficult feelings rather than just pushing them away. Her style is collaborative and curious. She helps clients make connections between past and present, and supports practical ways to try different ways of relating.
Work can include short-term support or a longer, deeper process depending on what the person wants. Prachi has four years of direct clinical experience. That time has included work across different settings which has informed how she tailors sessions to the person in front of her.
She respects cultural background and language needs when relevant to the issues raised. Sessions are offered to people in the UK and to international clients. Available formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the usual process. Prachi aims to create a steady space for people to look at shame, guilt, abandonment, grief, self-esteem and other concerns. The focus is on greater understanding and more helpful ways of being in relationships and everyday life.

Psychodynamic approaches and online therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how early relationships and past experiences shape current feelings and patterns. It helps people understand recurring reactions, attachment concerns and long-standing mood or relationship difficulties by making those links clearer in discussion.In practice the therapist will listen for repeating themes and gently bring them into view. This can help with issues such as abandonment, shame, communication problems and unresolved grief. The work is conversational and reflective rather than skills-only, and it often suits people wanting deeper understanding of themselves.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and practical needs, and together they will try ways of working that fit. If something feels off, they can adjust the focus or pacing as sessions continue.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation when visual contact matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing written reflection between longer sessions. These options make it easier to arrange therapy around work, family and location while maintaining continuity of care.
