About Gurpreet
Gurpreet Gill is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with seven years of practice in the United Kingdom. She focuses on helping people who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression and issues linked to trauma and abuse. Gurpreet offers straightforward support for anger, self-esteem and mood concerns such as bipolar symptoms.
She keeps sessions simple and direct. Gurpreet creates a calm space for people to talk through difficult feelings.
Background and approach
She listens without judgment and works alongside clients to clarify what change might look like. Gurpreet draws on approaches that help people name and manage their thoughts and reactions. She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking, and acceptance-based ideas to help people live by their values even when emotions are hard.
Attachment-focused ways of working also inform her practice, especially when early relationships affect current patterns. This can help people who feel empty, struggle with abandonment fears, or repeat the same relationship problems. Sessions address a wide range of concerns, including family of origin issues, caregiver stress, substance use and eating-related struggles.
Practical tools and gentle reflection are used together so people can try small changes between sessions. The aim is clearer thinking and better day-to-day functioning.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Gurpreet uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions even when feelings are hard. ACT focuses on values and committed action rather than only trying to change every thought.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current behaviour. This approach can help people notice repeating cycles and experiment with new ways of connecting and setting boundaries.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Gurpreet discusses options with each person and tailors the methods to the individual’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where technique and pace are agreed together.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different lives and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat can be good for brief focused check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options aim to make counselling more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving or mobility constraints.
