About Raghbhir

Raghbhir Gandham is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with adults who are feeling stuck after changes at work, in relationships, or in health. Raghbhir helps people who are coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, eating or sleeping problems, grief, anger and relationship concerns.

She uses clear, practical conversations rather than jargon. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what could help day to day. Common themes she addresses include attachment and abandonment worries, body image and eating-related issues, and stress from caregiving or chronic illness.

Raghbhir draws on a range of approaches to match the person in front of her. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take small, meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with unhelpful thinking and routines. Attachment-based work looks at patterns from past relationships that affect current choices.

Her style aims to be direct and respectful, with attention to practical skills such as coping with urges, managing sleep, and handling anger. She also supports people dealing with bereavement, relationship separation, domestic violence histories, and substance use concerns. Sessions may include reflection, skill practice and planning for real-life situations.

Raghbhir speaks English and Punjabi and accepts international clients. If someone wants to explore life direction after a stressful change, she offers a straightforward first-step process to begin work together.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to the client and supporting small actions that align with those values. It is useful for people struggling with direction, emptiness, or patterns they want to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and habits, which can help with sleep problems, anxiety about decisions, and managing urges related to addiction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Raghbhir will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and circumstances. That means trying an approach, reflecting on what helps, and adjusting plans together rather than committing to a single method from the start.

Confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use quieter surroundings, choose whether to be on camera, and keep therapy within the flow of daily life while exploring values, coping strategies and relationship patterns with a registered professional.
