Starnta Johal, NCPS

Starnta Johal is a person-centred therapist who brings a practical, empathetic approach to working with individuals and young people. She holds the NCPS credential, a recognised counselling and psychotherapy qualification, and combines that foundation with additional specialist training to support clients through difficult life experiences.

She has availability for single sessions, short courses of four to six weeks, or longer-term work depending on client needs, and invites enquiries about current time slots. If contact outside the platform is preferred, she can be reached at [email protected] for use when technical issues arise.

Although trained primarily in person-centred practice, she draws on multiple modalities including Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Trauma-Focused Therapy. Starnta is trained in polyvagal theory, has completed Cruse bereavement counselling training, and is a certified clinical trauma specialist. She has also worked for an agency specialising in survivors of domestic and sexual abuse. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, LGBT and intimacy-related issues, parenting and anger concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes, and she also works with young people on exam stress, confidence, suicidal thoughts and self-harm.

She aims to help clients explore underlying patterns, broaden perspective, and build understanding and resilience. She looks forward to meeting individuals who are ready to take the first step toward growth and healing.
