About Gurpreet
Gurpreet Gill is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of practice. She supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar disorder, depression and low self-esteem.
Gurpreet describes her work as practical and person-focused. She listens to what matters most and helps people talk through feelings and behaviours that get in the way. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at making day-to-day life feel more manageable.
Her background includes supporting people with relationship and family-of-origin problems, attachment difficulties, abandonment issues and communication struggles. She also works with people facing substance misuse, eating and body-image concerns, dissociation, and the fallout from divorce or separation. These topics often come up alongside mood disturbance and anxiety symptoms.
Clinically she draws on several approaches to guide the work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify thinking and behaviour patterns. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based ideas help explore values and relational patterns.
In sessions Gurpreet tends to combine listening with clear, doable strategies. She encourages small steps - for example noticing triggers, trying new coping skills, or practising different ways to talk to others. People who want practical ways to manage anger and improve day-to-day functioning may find this style helpful.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and willingness to experience difficult thoughts in order to act in line with what matters. It can help when anger or avoidance gets in the way of important relationships or goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change patterns that increase stress and anger. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills useful for intense or recurring anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will explore your current problems, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That choice is collaborative and can change as work progresses.
Confirm session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoiding the need to be on camera when that feels difficult. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly adapt exercises and skills training to an online setting so the work remains practical and focused on everyday changes.
