Gurpreet Gill

Gurpreet Gill is a counsellor who practises in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. She has seven years of experience and supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar, depression and low self-esteem. Gurpreet aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and straightforward. She focuses on helping people speak about difficult feelings without judgment.

Her work begins by listening to what matters most to each person. Sessions are intended to be an open space where someone can talk through thoughts and reactions and make sense of them. Gurpreet draws on practical tools from approaches such as cognitive behavioural methods and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try different coping strategies.

Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationships and patterns that repeat across a person’s life. Dialectical behaviour therapy techniques are used where emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. The counsellor uses client-centred principles to keep the person’s goals central to each session.

Gurpreet has worked across a range of concerns including anger, substance-related problems, eating and body-image questions, family of origin issues, communication difficulties, dissociation, and problems linked to caregiving and divorce. She also supports people facing emptiness, abandonment and control issues.

Her style is practical and collaborative. She helps people set small, achievable goals and practices techniques in session that can be applied between meetings. The process is paced to suit each person’s needs and preferences.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on spotting what matters to you and taking small actions that match your values. It helps with anxiety, anger and low mood by teaching people to notice thoughts without getting stuck in them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for stress, depression and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and can help when trust, abandonment or repeating relationship problems are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their goals, history and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That choice is revisited as therapy progresses, so approaches can be blended to suit changing needs.

If you prefer online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats before booking since options are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows a mix of talking and practical exercises, such as behavioural experiments or mindfulness practices, that translate well to remote sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can help you decide whether online meetings will meet your needs.
