About Surjeet
Surjeet Bahra is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. She also supports those coping with grief, trauma and abuse, and people managing addictions or major life changes.
She keeps sessions respectful and straightforward. Conversations are shaped around what each person needs and wants to change. Surjeet aims to build clear goals and practical steps rather than long, abstract plans.
Background and approach
Her background includes a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration, known as BACP. That reflects a commitment to professional standards and ongoing development in counselling practice. Surjeet uses a mix of well-established approaches.
She draws on attachment-focused work to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. Cognitive behavioural ideas help break down unhelpful thoughts and habits into manageable pieces. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and motivational interviewing when people need help finding motivation to change.
Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. Formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. The working style is collaborative and practical, with attention to clear steps people can use between sessions.

How Surjeet’s approaches fit online care
Surjeet draws on attachment-based work to help people understand how past relationships shape current patterns. This approach looks at emotional needs and recurring reactions, which can be discussed in depth during sessions online or by phone.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT suits issues like anxiety, low mood, sleep and eating concerns because it breaks problems down into small, practical steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Surjeet works with each person to decide what fits their goals and preferences. That means experimenting with techniques and checking in about what helps most as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video lets people work face to face when that is helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to access regular support around daily life and commitments.
