About Manjinder

Manjinder Sanghera-Palmer is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and depression, and also supports those coping with motivation and confidence concerns.

She keeps conversation straightforward and focuses on what someone is trying to change. Sessions are practical and aim to make everyday situations more manageable. She adapts the pace and topics to the individual rather than following a rigid script.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centred principles. That means attention to how close relationships affect current feelings, and a focus on listening without directing the conversation. The work can involve looking at patterns in relationships and trying responses that feel different.

Manjinder also addresses issues that often accompany anxiety and low mood, such as sleep problems, loss and grief, and challenges at work or in caregiving roles. She works with people on goals like handling social situations, improving communication, or rebuilding confidence after a setback.

Sessions invite practical steps as well as reflection. Clients can expect clear talk about next actions, and space to name what is difficult. The emphasis is on small, concrete changes that fit into everyday life rather than lengthy theory.

To start, people choose the online therapy option and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session. This helps set out what to focus on from the first meeting.

How attachment and client-centred work translates online

Attachment-based work looks at how past and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions can be used to notice those patterns, practise new ways of relating, and talk through painful moments. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following what the client brings; online meetings keep the emphasis on the client's priorities and pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which ideas fit best for their goals, needs and preferences. That collaboration helps shape which topics come up and what practical steps are tried between sessions.

Confirm the session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, for example avoiding travel, joining from a quieter location, or arranging a shorter check-in when time is limited. These practical benefits help sessions happen more regularly and work with a client's routine rather than against it.
