About Simran
Counsellor and member of BACP with six years' experience, Simran Nandhra works in the United Kingdom offering help with stress, anxiety, relationships, family issues, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people facing trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy concerns, eating and anger problems, ADHD, and related issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family matters and women's issues.
Simran uses a person-centred way of working. That means she listens to each person's story and follows what matters to them. Sessions focus on what a client brings and on helping them notice strengths and options they already have.
She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from earlier relationships and life events that may affect current feelings and behaviour. This can help when someone wants to understand recurring problems or strong emotional reactions.
In a session Simran will aim to make time for open talking and reflection. She supports people to name feelings, weigh choices and try small changes between sessions. Practical tasks or topics to try at home are offered when they seem useful.

Therapeutic approaches and how online counselling works
Client-centred therapy is about listening to the person in front of the counsellor and following what matters most to them. It focuses on the client's experience, their choices and building on strengths to manage stress, relationships and low self-esteem.Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns that come from past relationships and early life. It helps when people want to understand repeated emotional reactions or why certain situations feel difficult, such as family conflict or intimacy issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Simran will discuss different ways of working with each person and agree what fits their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative choice rather than a fixed plan.
The practical benefits of remote counselling can include fitting sessions around work or family time, shorter check-ins when needed, and talking without travel. The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often offer flexible arrangements to help make therapy easier to fit into everyday life.
