About Surji

Surji Cair is a counsellor who has practised in the United Kingdom for three years and holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She uses a person-centred way of working that treats people as the experts in their own lives. Sessions focus on listening, warmth and practical steps people can try between meetings.

Surji helps with common concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people dealing with big life changes, grief, career questions and relationship or intimacy-related worries.

Background and approach

Addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar and compassion fatigue are also listed areas she works with. Her approach starts by making space for what matters most to the person in front of her. Conversations aim to build on existing strengths and to clarify small, manageable goals.

The pace is set by the client and Surji uses empathic listening to help people make sense of difficult feelings. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Clients can expect clear, straightforward conversation about choices and next steps.

When helpful, Surji will suggest exercises or ways to practise new skills between sessions. Surji works in English and accepts international clients, offering a range of online formats to suit different needs. She encourages people to take the first step and will guide them through the matching and scheduling process.

Person-centred and practical approaches for online counselling

Surji primarily works in a person-centred way, which means conversations centre on the client and their experience. The therapist listens without judgement and helps people name what matters most, so they can decide the next steps that feel right for them. This approach is useful for building self-understanding and managing feelings like anxiety or low mood.

In addition, Surji uses straightforward practical techniques to help people cope day to day. These might include simple strategies to manage stress, steps to break down big changes, or short exercises to try between sessions. Such techniques aim to make progress feel doable and focused on real life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Surji will collaborate with each person to decide what fits their needs, goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts the way she works as things change so the plan stays useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls are close to face-to-face meetings and suit longer conversations, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easy to check in, have shorter check-ups or keep therapy going across time zones. These options give ways to fit counselling into different schedules and circumstances.
