Gurpreet Gill, BACP

Gurpreet Gill is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience and a BACP registration. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms and issues linked to trauma and abuse. She aims to create a calm, straightforward space where worries can be talked through without judgement.

Gurpreet explains things plainly and works with clients to notice patterns in thoughts and everyday habits. She uses practical conversation to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding. Sessions often involve setting small, real-world goals and checking what works between meetings.

Her approach combines several therapeutic styles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps with changing thought patterns that keep stress and low mood going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports identifying values and taking steps toward a meaningful life, even when difficult feelings remain. Attachment-based ideas and client-centred ways of working shape how she builds trust and explores relationship patterns.

Gurpreet also brings strategies from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when people need help with strong emotions and practical coping skills. She has particular experience with self-esteem, anger, addiction-related concerns and family of origin issues. The work is collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs.

If you are thinking about therapy, she asks people to describe what matters now and what they hope to change. That helps both sides decide on short-term goals and useful next steps.

How her approaches translate to online work

Gurpreet draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thought patterns that keep stress and low mood going. CBT sessions usually focus on practical ideas and homework tasks to try out between meetings. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take meaningful steps, even when difficult feelings are present. ACT often involves simple experiments and values-based goals that fit into everyday life.

Finding the right approach is a joint task. She will discuss what matters to the client and try methods that suit their needs and preferences. Work is paced to what feels manageable and is reviewed as therapy progresses so adjustments can be made together.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking because the profile does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family demands, reduce travel time, and allow for quicker check-ins when needed. Some formats also let people work without being on camera or with shorter sessions for brief updates, which can help when energy or time is limited.
