About Rajitha
Rajitha Cruz is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and relationship worries. She works with a wide range of concerns including trauma, depression, grief, addictions and self-esteem. Rajitha offers support in English and Tamil and aims to make speaking about hard things feel manageable.
She uses an integrative style which draws from several established approaches. That means sessions are shaped around each person's needs rather than a single method.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on understanding difficult feelings, spotting unhelpful thinking and trying small changes that can ease day-to-day life. In practical terms Rajitha listens without judgement and helps people make sense of their experiences. She prioritises building self-awareness and exploring patterns that keep problems repeating.
Together she works with clients to identify clearer ways forward and to build skills for coping with life changes. Rajitha trained on a Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body course, and she holds BACP credentials. She continues professional development through further training to broaden her approach.
Her background supports a straightforward, person-focused way of working. Sessions can cover practical topics such as sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, work stress and intimacy issues alongside deeper themes like attachment, abandonment or family of origin problems. People who prefer therapy in Tamil can choose to speak in that language.
How Rajitha adapts established approaches for online work
Rajitha commonly uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to guide online sessions. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and helping the person find their own solutions, which suits talking through feelings and relation issues. Cognitive behavioural work looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and involves practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, useful for anxiety and sleep problems.She also draws on trauma-focused ideas when past hurts affect daily life. That approach carefully attends to how traumatic experiences shape current reactions and uses gradual steps to process those memories and build coping skills. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process - Rajitha and the person will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try methods together and adjust as needed.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit into a short break, live chat can be a quicker check-in and messaging supports ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options make it easier to match timing and format to everyday life while working on anxiety, relationships and other concerns.
