About me

It can feel exhausting when low mood, anxiety or the impact of past trauma/life events keep you stuck in your own head and find day-to-day life difficult to navigate. Whether you are dealing with a recent loss, work pressure, or the lingering impact of domestic or sexual violence, therapy can support you to find a way forward.

My name is Davinder and I am a qualified psychotherapist with over a decade of experience supporting people through their most challenging times. Throughout my career, I have worked across the NHS, private companies, and charities, giving me a deep understanding of the diverse struggles people face.

I offer a calm, empathic space where you can slow down, untangle your thoughts and feelings, and find a steady path forward at your own pace.

My focus is on helping you feel truly heard and understood. Together, we can explore what is happening beneath the surface, make sense of painful or overwhelming experiences, and build practical ways to cope.

My areas of experience include:

·       Anxiety and work-related stress

·       Depression and low mood

·       Bereavement and loss

·       Trauma, domestic abuse, and sexual violence

Taking the first step can feel daunting. I offer a free 20-minute consultation by phone or video. This gives us a chance to talk about what you are looking for and see if we are a good fit to work together.

Therapy works best when it fits comfortably into your life and makes you feel secure. I offer several ways for us to connect, and I am happy to discuss which option will support you best:

·       Face-to-Face Therapy: Meeting in person in a dedicated, private space.

·       Online Therapy: Convenient & secure video sessions from your own home.

·       Telephone Therapy: Ideal if you prefer the focus and ease of a call.

·       Outdoor Therapy: Walk-and-talk sessions that help connect movement                                               with reflection.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Key details

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
