About Rajitha
Rajitha Cruz is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with three years of practice experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, and intimacy-related issues. Sessions are offered in English and Tamil.
Rajitha uses an integrative approach that draws on a few practical methods. She aims to help people notice unhelpful thinking and behaviour, and then try different ways of responding. This can include short, focused strategies as well as talking through deeper patterns that affect current problems.
In sessions she helps clients identify difficult emotions and unhelpful thinking styles. She guides people through manageable steps to change behaviours that get in the way of daily life. Conversations are straightforward and goal-focused when that is useful, or more reflective when people want to look at long-standing patterns.
Rajitha trained on a Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body course, which is accredited by CPCAB. She continues to attend additional training to broaden her skills. Her mix of methods includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, client-centred work, psychodynamic ideas, solution-focused techniques and trauma work.
People who choose her often want practical, structured help and some time to reflect on deeper issues. To start, a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session are used to set goals and agree a plan.
How Rajitha uses structured approaches online
Rajitha commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred work in online sessions. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses through practical exercises. Client-centred methods give time to talk things through and build understanding of what matters to the individual.She also draws on psychodynamic ideas when people want to look at how past patterns affect present choices. That work is more reflective and looks at recurring relationship or emotional themes. Finding the right mix is collaborative: the therapist and client agree the approach based on the client’s goals and what feels helpful in practice.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm which options are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a weekday break, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when needed. Registered or accredited professionals aim to match the format and pace to the client’s needs and day-to-day routine.
