Compassionate counsellor for relationship and identity concerns
Book with ChirayuAbout Chirayu
Chirayu Goyal is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He focuses on supporting people through relationship and identity concerns, grief, depression, and issues around intimacy and body image. He offers help in English and Hindi and accepts international clients.
Chirayu aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion. He works with each person to shape conversations and plans that fit their needs.
Background and approach
That means listening first, and then agreeing simple goals together. In sessions he draws on client-centred work to keep the focus on the person. He also uses emotion-focused ideas to help people locate and name strong feelings.
Narrative and psychodynamic ways of working help look at life stories and recurring patterns that get in the way. He also uses strategies from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, for managing distress and improving emotional regulation. Practical skills and gentle reflection are mixed so people leave with both understanding and tools to try between sessions.
Chirayu supports a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and LGBT-related matters. He tailors the pace of therapy to each person and invites feedback along the way so the work stays useful and relevant.

Approaches used online and how they help
Chirayu uses client-centred work to keep conversations focused on the person's needs and priorities, helping someone feel heard and seen as they talk through concerns. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive behaviours, which is useful for stress, anxiety and addictions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and express deeper feelings, often improving connection and understanding in relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and try different ways of working to find what fits best. That could mean mixing reflective conversation with practical skills practice, and adjusting the pace as you progress.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-in meetings, or making sessions possible across time zones for international clients. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, homework and paced skills practice to an online setting so the work remains practical and relevant.
