About Rajitha

Rajitha Cruz is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, intimacy issues, sleep problems, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem, career strain and bipolar mood concerns.

She uses an integrative approach that draws on several therapies rather than one fixed method. That means she adapts her way of working to what a person brings to sessions. Conversations often focus on understanding feelings, spotting unhelpful thinking and noticing repeated patterns in relationships and behaviour.

In practical terms she helps people name difficult emotions and talk through how those feelings affect day-to-day life. She also helps with clearer communication and coping skills for stressful situations. Sessions include gentle reflection and practical exercises aimed at manageable change.

She completed a counselling and psychotherapy course accredited by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body. Rajitha continues to update her practice through ongoing professional learning to broaden the techniques she offers.

Sessions can be offered in English and Tamil. She is open to working with people based outside the UK as well. To begin, readers are invited to use the site matching process and schedule a first session after completing the short questionnaire.

How her approaches translate online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. Online sessions using this approach let people talk through their feelings while the counsellor reflects and asks questions to deepen self-awareness. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behaviour patterns and uses practical exercises. Online work with CBT often includes worksheets, activity planning and short between-session tasks to reduce anger and unhelpful thoughts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and agree which methods to try. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasise reflection, structured tasks or trauma-informed techniques depending on what the client needs.

The exact session formats are not specified here, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to keep sessions practical and focused on everyday changes rather than only long conversations.
