Gurpreet Gill, BACP

Gurpreet Gill is a counsellor with seven years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar disorder, depression and low self-esteem. Gurpreet aims to make the first step easier for anyone who is worried or unsure about reaching out. She creates a welcoming space where clients can speak honestly about difficult thoughts and feelings. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the person and finding realistic ways to manage daily struggles. Conversations are practical and rooted in real-life situations rather than jargon. Gurpreet draws on several well-known approaches to help people make change. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and act on their values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify patterns of thinking and to build different ways of coping. Attachment-Based ideas help unpack how early relationships affect current patterns, especially around abandonment and connection. Her work also addresses specific concerns such as body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, dissociation and family of origin matters. She supports people facing addiction, domestic violence, eating and food-related issues, and the aftermath of divorce and separation. Gurpreet works in English and practices within the UK. If someone wants to begin, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability.

How therapy approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and still take action that fits their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress where avoidance has become a problem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It breaks problems into manageable steps and teaches practical strategies for changing unhelpful patterns. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is shared and can change as progress is made. If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose not to be on camera if that helps them focus more on the conversation. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt materials and exercises to run well over remote appointments. Talk with the therapist about practical arrangements and what might work best for your routine.
