Background and approach

Sessions are tailored so conversations and plans fit the individual, not a single template. In a session he listens closely and helps people name what feels hardest. He then works with them to set small, achievable goals and practical steps to try between meetings.

He prefers straightforward language and clear tasks so progress feels visible. Parminder adapts his approach for cultural differences and for worries linked to phobias or somatic symptoms. He treats concerns about relationships and addiction with the same calm, non-judgemental focus.

Therapy with him is collaborative. He will discuss options and adjust the plan as needs change. The intention is to help people build skills they can use outside sessions and feel more in control of daily challenges.

Approaches that translate to online therapy

Evidence-based techniques can be used effectively online. One useful approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It helps with anxiety, stress and phobias by breaking problems into small, manageable steps and practising new responses. Another common approach works with physical symptoms and bodily responses, helping people notice how tension and symptoms link to feelings and reactions; this is often helpful for somatisation and panic-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match their goals, needs and personal preferences. Plans are reviewed and adjusted as progress is made, so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls are good for more involved conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a short break or suit people with low bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging allow for brief check-ins or reflection over the day. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments and to keep regular contact when needed.
