Simran Nandhra helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and family problems. She supports those coping with low self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, anger, intimacy issues and life changes. Simran also works with people exploring LGBT issues, ADHD, and specific family-related challenges such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics and family of origin concerns.

Simran believes people know their own story and brings a respectful, listening approach to sessions.

Background and approach

She uses a counsellor-centred style that focuses on each person’s experience and priorities. Conversations are paced to what feels manageable and useful for the individual. Her practice also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that affect present feelings and relationships.

This can help when painful repetitions or old wounds are getting in the way of day-to-day life. Simran holds BACP which indicates recognition by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has six years of experience working with people in the United Kingdom and offers help in English.

People can expect clear, straightforward sessions where the therapist listens, reflects and helps identify small steps forward. Her style aims to empower people to use their strengths and build coping skills that fit their life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, understanding and reflecting what matters most to the person. In online sessions this means conversations that follow the client’s priorities, helping them feel heard and supported while identifying practical next steps. It is useful for stress, anxiety, self-esteem and relationship concerns.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past experiences and repeated patterns affect current feelings and behaviour. Online sessions can be used to gently explore these patterns and how they play out in relationships and daily life, helping people make sense of long-standing difficulties.

Finding the right approach is often part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt the methods to suit each person. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls are close to face-to-face interaction and suit deeper conversations. Phone sessions work well when a quieter setup or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging give options for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions or when scheduling is tight. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and wellbeing.
