Therapeutic approaches available online with Surjeet Bahra

Surjeet commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy, and also uses Attachment-Based Therapy when relational patterns are central. CBT helps people identify and gently challenge unhelpful thoughts and build practical coping skills for issues such as anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration - the therapist follows the client’s lead to strengthen self-awareness, confidence, and motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early and adult relationship patterns to improve intimacy, communication, and emotional regulation.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Surjeet will collaborate with each client to determine which methods fit best given their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the plan as progress unfolds to ensure the approach remains useful and relevant.

Online sessions - via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - make it easier to access therapy from different locations and schedules. These options offer flexibility for busy lives, allow continuity when travel or relocation occurs, and give clients multiple ways to engage so they can choose the format that feels most comfortable and practical for them.
