Kamaljit "Kam" Aulakh, BACP

Kamaljit "Kam" Aulakh offers support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, self-esteem issues and grief. She also helps with addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, career shifts and other life changes. Kam is identified by her British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration (BACP).

Kamaljit describes a calm, relational way of working. She uses person-centred conversation to help people name what matters to them. Practical steps and thinking tools are used alongside emotional work when that suits a person. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelming thoughts and help people find clearer ways to cope day to day.

Her background includes five years of professional experience supporting a wide range of concerns. She has experience with people who have faced homelessness, domestic violence and contact with the criminal justice system. Kam is comfortable offering therapy in English and Punjabi for those who prefer it.

The BACP listing is the credential noted in her profile. She combines talking therapy with elements drawn from coaching, mindfulness, neuro-linguistic approaches and gentle energy work when appropriate. This mix is used to build confidence and a stronger sense of self worth.

People can expect a steady, non-judgemental space where the therapist listens and helps explore next steps. Kam emphasises working at a person’s pace and tailoring sessions to immediate needs and longer-term goals.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Kamaljit uses a mix of attachment-based work and client-centred methods when helping people explore relationship patterns and emotional needs. Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current reactions and helps people notice and alter unhelpful patterns. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening carefully and following what the person brings to each session, offering empathy and reflection rather than direction.

Cognitive behavioural elements are also used to spot thinking patterns that keep problems going and to try small changes in how people think and act. This can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and day-to-day coping. Kam will work collaboratively to decide which approach or combination fits best for each person, inviting discussion about goals, preferences and what feels useful in practice.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking as the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around family, work or study. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, or avoid travel time on busy days. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor online sessions to focus on emotional processing, practical skills or both, and will adapt the pace depending on individual needs.
