About Surji

Surji Cair works with stress, anxiety, depression and coping with life changes using a person-centred way of working. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience in the UK.

Surji names the client as expert in their own story and focuses on drawing out personal strengths. She uses person-centred practice to help people talk through what feels hard and to find workable steps forward. Conversations tend to be practical and paced to the individual.

Her background includes supporting people dealing with addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. She also works with concerns around career, compassion fatigue, bipolar experiences, and LGBT matters. Each area is approached through person-centred principles and collaborative discussion.

Sessions are intended to let people reflect on their priorities, try different ways of responding, and test small changes between meetings. Surji aims to help people notice what helps them feel more able to manage day-to-day and longer-term challenges.

Surji works in English and accepts international clients. The first steps are a short matching questionnaire and then booking a first session, which fits with the site process for initial contact.

How Surji uses person-centred work and practical approaches online

Surji uses person-centred counselling as her core approach. That means conversations focus on the client's own view of their difficulties and on recognising strengths that can be used to move forward. This approach is often helpful for things like anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.

She also applies straightforward, evidence-based techniques alongside person-centred work. These techniques include structured talking methods that help people identify unhelpful patterns and try alternative responses, and practical problem-solving to break down overwhelming tasks into small steps. Such methods can support issues like stress, grief and relationship concerns.

Finding the right mix of ways of working is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to agree what to focus on and will adapt the approach as needs and goals become clearer.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Remote sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find online work helps keep continuity between meetings while they test changes in everyday life.
