About

About Simran

Simran Nandhra is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports clients dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy concerns, eating issues, anger, ADHD and LGBT-related matters. She speaks plainly and treats each person as the expert of their own story.

Simran works from the belief that people already hold many strengths. She focuses on drawing out those strengths to tackle difficult moments.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to make change feel possible, one step at a time. She uses a calm, respectful manner to help people feel heard and more able to try different ways of coping. Her approach blends client-centred ideas with psychodynamic thinking.

That means she listens closely to what matters now and also pays attention to patterns from earlier life that keep causing problems. Conversations cover feelings, relationships and repeated habits, and look for small, practical shifts that make daily life easier. Simran has six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation, which is shown as BACP.

She offers sessions in English and does not accept international clients at this time. Costs vary with location and therapist availability, and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules according to therapist availability.

This process helps match needs and preferences before the first meeting.

Online support

How these approaches work online and what to expect

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist offers non-judgemental attention and reflection so people feel understood and more able to make their own choices. It can help with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship worries and adjusting to change.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat across relationships and life stages. It pays attention to feelings and memories that influence how a person reacts today. This approach can be useful for grief, long-standing relationship problems, abandonment issues and recurring emotional habits.

Finding the best approach is a shared process. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and try ways of working that fit the person’s needs. That may mean focusing more on here-and-now coping or spending time on earlier life patterns, depending on what helps most.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera, or use lower bandwidth options when that works better for them.
