These methods are adapted to what each person brings to the room and their preferred pace. Sessions focus on clear techniques alongside personal reflection. Raj speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, and she practises in the United Kingdom.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Raj will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods to a person’s goals and pace. This is collaborative - choices are made together rather than prescribed up front.
Online therapy with Raj is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video allows for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging works for quick check-ins or when writing helps to clarify thoughts. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
