About Poppy
Poppy Perrin is a BACP Registered Member (MBACP) and an NCPS Accredited Member (MNCPS Accred) with three years' experience. She works with people who report stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression, and she also supports those dealing with trauma, motivation difficulties and compassion fatigue.
Poppy describes her style as practical and collaborative. She uses a mix of therapies to fit what the person wants to work on. Sessions focus on noticing habits of thought and trying new ways of responding in everyday life.
Early work usually looks at immediate coping and day-to-day routines. That can include simple behavioural experiments, breathing and grounding strategies, or short exercises to test out different thinking patterns. These are practical steps people can try between sessions.
As work progresses, Poppy helps people identify longer-standing patterns such as attachment issues or repeating relationship problems. She draws on approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based methods to explore feelings and behaviour together.
Poppy also addresses specific issues like sleep or eating concerns, addiction-related behaviours, and adjustments after life changes. She encourages clear goals and small changes that add up over time, and she reviews progress regularly with the person in the room.
Sessions are conversational and task-focused. People who want structured help with thoughts, habits and practical skills tend to find this approach useful. To begin, follow the site steps to complete the matching questionnaire and arrange a first appointment.
How Poppy uses structured approaches in online therapy
Poppy works with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based ideas. CBT looks at thought patterns and behaviours and uses short exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and practical problems such as sleep or unhelpful habits.ACT focuses on values and taking small, committed steps even when uncomfortable feelings are present. It aims to help people notice what matters to them and act in line with those goals. Attachment-based methods look at how early relationships can shape expectations and repeating patterns in current relationships.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences and try approaches together to see what fits. This is a collaborative process where methods are adjusted based on what helps the person make concrete changes.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these practical advantages while focusing on skills, exercises and routines you can apply between meetings.
