About Rupinder
Rupinder Sagoo is a counsellor and psychotherapist with 25 years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She takes a whole-person view, looking beyond immediate symptoms to understand emotional, physical and relational influences. Rupinder offers both short-term and longer-term work and adapts her approach to each person’s needs.
Her practice blends talking therapy with attention to sleep, diet, daily routines and life purpose. She uses familiar, practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety and low mood.
Background and approach
Conversations are straightforward and focused on useful steps you can try between sessions. Rupinder draws on a mix of approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-focused ideas and client-centred work. She combines these in ways that match what an individual brings to sessions rather than following a single formula.
Common concerns she helps people with include anxiety, depression, grief, relationship problems, self‑esteem, career or study stress, sleep difficulties and life changes. She also has experience with issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, and domestic violence. Sessions are offered in English and can take place online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.
Rupinder accepts international clients and frames therapy as a collaborative process where goals are set together.

How Rupinder’s approaches work online
Rupinder uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help people change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. In practical terms this can mean spotting thought traps, testing new behaviours and practising small changes between sessions to reduce anxiety or low mood.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing difficult feelings and choosing values-based actions. ACT can help when someone wants to carry on with life despite ongoing worry or sadness.
Finding the right approach tends to be a collaborative process. Rupinder discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods as therapy progresses. This helps make sure sessions fit what someone needs in that moment rather than following a fixed plan.
Online work is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non‑verbal cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits short check-ins or people who prefer written exchanges. These options help people fit therapy around work, study or caregiving commitments.
