About John
Counsellor John Chauhan is a member of NCPS with four years of experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions and related concerns. Sessions are conducted in English for people based in the United Kingdom.
John presents a straightforward, human-centred way of working. He places the client at the centre of sessions and aims to help people access their own resources. He describes his own lived experience with trauma, complex post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety and self-harm, and uses that perspective when talking to people with similar issues.
He uses client-centred therapy as a base and combines other approaches as needed. That can include listening-focused sessions and practical techniques such as anxiety strategies, mindfulness exercises, hobby development and self-soothing methods. He also mentions cognitive-behavioural techniques, imagery work and creative tools like poetry.
John notes a particular background in supporting young adults roughly aged 18 to 40, while saying he can work with people slightly older too. He is open about limits to his skillset and says he will recommend alternative support if needed.

Client-centred approaches and online counselling
Client-centred therapy places the person seeking help at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without direction and supports a person to speak through their concerns. This approach is often used for issues like low mood, self-esteem, grief and relationship stress.John also uses practical techniques alongside client-centred work. He may offer mindfulness exercises, anxiety management strategies, cognitive-behavioural ideas and creative tools such as imagery or poetry. These are added to suit the person and the problem being worked on.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. John says he will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most useful. That collaboration helps set goals and choose techniques to try.
Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy around work, study or family commitments. It also supports shorter check-ins, sessions without being on camera, or meetings that avoid travel. Registered or accredited professionals can use these ways of working to help people keep therapy practical and manageable.
