About Surji
Surji Cair is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works in a person-centred way and meets people where they are. Surji focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or depression and those coping with major life changes.
She approaches sessions with a calm, respectful manner and believes clients hold knowledge about their own lives. That means conversations centre on the client’s goals and strengths.
Background and approach
Surji aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can talk through what feels difficult and try out different ways of responding. Surji has supported people with relationship worries, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns. She also works with issues such as addictions, career stress, bipolar mood challenges, compassion fatigue and LGBT matters.
Her background includes person-centred training, which informs how she listens and responds. In practical terms she offers a mix of session styles to suit different needs. Sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging.
This variety makes it easier to fit therapy around work, family life or other commitments. Surji asks people to think about what they hope to change and brings steady, person-focused support while they do that. Starting therapy can feel hard, and she aims to make the first steps straightforward and respectful.
Therapeutic approaches and online delivery
Surji works from a person-centred foundation which focuses on understanding each person’s experience and strengths. Sessions emphasise listening, reflection and helping people shape their own goals. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions because it centres the person rather than imposing solutions.She also draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide practical work in sessions. That can include structuring conversations around current difficulties, trying alternative ways of responding to stress, and using brief exercises to manage overwhelming feelings. These techniques are aimed at helping people notice patterns and experiment with different coping strategies.
Deciding which approaches to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options with the client and adapt methods to fit their needs, goals and preferences. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work can be adjusted over time.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules. Video is good for a conversation that feels close to face to face. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Text and chat options suit people who prefer writing or need a flexible way to fit therapy around work or family life.
