Empower Yourself Through Therapy
Healing isn’t always linear but with the right support, it’s always possible. My practice offers thoughtful, client-centered therapy designed to meet you where you are and help you move forward with confidence and compassion.
"I am incredibly thankful and grateful to Shruti for everything she has done for me. I truly don’t know how I would have managed without her support. At a time when I felt completely overwhelmed and lost, Shruti was the one who picked me up and guided me toward healing. She helped me stand on my own again and reminded me of my strengths, capabilities, and self-worth. Her support has made a lasting impact on my life, and I genuinely look forward to continuing my journey with her in future sessions."

What Clients Say
The Difference We Deliver
One Consistent Therapist, Always
No retelling your story, no therapist switching. Just a steady, safe space built on trust.
Internationally Trained, Culturally Sensitive
With intensive training from the University of Edinburgh and experience working with Indian youth, I bring both international perspective and cultural understanding to therapy.
Quality Over Quantity
I intentionally work with a limited number of clients to offer deeper, more attentive care because your healing deserves time, not a rush.
Thoughtful, Not Transactional
No algorithm-driven sessions or generic advice. I offer personalised therapy that respects your pace and honours your lived experience.
Your Journey to Well-being:
What to Expect in Therapy
Welcome! Taking the step to begin therapy is a sign of strength and a commitment to your well-being. Here at Shruti Poonia Psychological Services, I offer a safe, confidential, and supportive space where you can explore your challenges, gain clarity, and develop the skills you need to thrive.
Getting Started - Your First Session
Our first session is all about getting to know each other. I will take the time to understand what brings you to therapy, your goals, and expectations, while you have the opportunity to share your story at your own pace. We will talk about the therapy process and my approach.
Building a Strong Foundation - Our Ongoing Sessions
As we continue to meet, we will work collaboratively to build a trusting and comfortable relationship within the bounds of confidentiality. We will set meaningful therapy goals and develop a personalized plan to help you achieve them, moving at a pace that feels right for you.
Gaining Deeper Understanding - Exploring Thoughts and Feelings
With my expertise in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I will guide you in recognizing the powerful connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. Our goal will be to identify and shift thought patterns that no longer serve you, fostering a more positive and empowering mindset. This process will help you better understand yourself, make choices aligned with your values, and find greater peace.
Developing Tools for Growth - Building Coping Skills
As therapy progresses, you will apply the insights you gain to your daily life. I will introduce practical exercises and strategies to help you manage stress, anxiety, and other emotional challenges. My goal is to equip you with the tools to navigate life’s ups and downs with confidence and resilience.
Reflecting on Your Progress - Tracking Your Growth
Throughout our time together, we will regularly assess your progress towards your goals, reflecting on what's working well, identifying areas for adjustment, and acknowledging the positive changes you're making. Therapy is a journey of self-growth, so it’s important to recognize even the small steps that bring you closer to your goals.

Therapy is a unique and personal journey. There's no "right" way to do it, so please be kind and patient with yourself. It's perfectly okay to go at your own pace and not have all the answers right away. I am here to walk alongside you, offering support and guidance every step of the way.
