About Surjeet
Surjeet Bahra is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a BACP credential and 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with relationship and family difficulties, grief, trauma, addictions and major life changes.
Surjeet works in a respectful and compassionate way. She listens first and adapts conversations to each person. She aims to create a straightforward plan together so sessions feel purposeful and manageable.
Background and approach
Her approach draws on a few practical methods. Cognitive behavioural techniques help break unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. Attachment-based ideas look at how past relationships shape current reactions.
Motivational interviewing can boost readiness to change when people feel stuck. Typical sessions involve talking through immediate problems and trying small experiments between meetings. Surjeet helps people set short-term goals and build skills for handling stress, sleep difficulties, eating concerns and intimacy-related worries.
She also works with issues such as parenting strain, substance use and feelings of emptiness. Surjeet accepts people from the UK and international clients who want to work in English. To start, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions.
The counselling subscription can be cancelled at any time.

How Surjeet works online
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work collaboratively to choose techniques that match the client's goals and preferences. Sessions often start with practical goals and adjust as needs and progress become clearer.
The original biography does not list which session formats are used, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes working with a UK-based counsellor possible for people living elsewhere who want sessions in English.
