About Gurpreet

Gurpreet Gill is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar, depression and self-esteem. Sessions centre on talking through immediate problems and making small, practical changes.

Gurpreet draws on several therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. She uses these methods to help people understand patterns, manage strong emotions and develop new coping skills.

Clients can expect a straightforward style that prioritises clear communication. Conversations aim to identify what causes distress and which small steps could reduce it. Practical exercises and reflection between sessions are used when helpful.

Gurpreet has particular experience with issues connected to relationships and family background, such as attachment difficulties, abandonment and family of origin problems. She also works with concerns like body image, eating and addiction-related issues.

Her approach is collaborative: she helps each person decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. People who value direct conversation about feelings and behaviour may find this approach useful.

Approaches used in remote work and what they involve

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress when people want clearer direction on what matters to them.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses practical experiments and exercises to reduce unhelpful thinking and change responses to triggers, which can help with anxiety and low mood.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and expectations. It can help when relationship difficulties, abandonment fears or attachment issues drive distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how problems show up in daily life, then try methods together to see what fits. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted as needs change.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them engage more comfortably.
