About Sukhbinder
Sukhbinder Yip is a counsellor with 16 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, which indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful of each person's courage.
Sukhbinder works from a person-centred stance, offering a calm and compassionate presence while people talk through what feels hard. She also draws on cognitive behavioural approaches to help identify unhelpful thinking and on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time.
Background and approach
Solution-focused techniques are used when people want practical steps to move forward. She supports people with stress, anxiety and depression and with experiences of trauma and abuse. Sukhbinder also helps with grief, self-esteem, panic attacks and relationship and family-related struggles such as attachment and family problems.
Other areas she addresses include eating and body-image issues, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and social anxiety. Sukhbinder describes her style as collaborative and empowering. She invites people to take part in choosing the strategies used in sessions and to build on their existing strengths.
Her background includes work and training in domestic and sexual violence and safeguarding awareness. Sessions are offered in English and use a range of online formats. Practical matters such as cost and scheduling follow a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and people start by completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging a session.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, panic attacks, mood problems and stressful thinking.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process and will be agreed collaboratively. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and day-to-day needs, and then try methods that fit those aims. Sessions can blend person-centred listening with CBT tasks or brief solution-focused steps depending on what helps.
Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face connection, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and short live chat or text exchanges can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options increase flexibility for scheduling and for choosing how to communicate during treatment.
