About Jatindar
Jatindar Bhogal is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 22 years of experience. She speaks English and Punjabi and offers support around common parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. Jay aims to create a respectful and compassionate space for people who are feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to begin.
Her approach is practical and client-focused. Sessions are shaped around the issues brought each week and the goals a person wants to set.
Background and approach
She uses familiar, straightforward techniques to address mood, anxiety, grief and relationship strains, and adapts her way of working to individual needs. Jay draws on several therapeutic methods to guide sessions, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas. These give clear steps for noticing thoughts and feelings, changing unhelpful patterns, and improving relationships.
She also uses Emotionally-Focused and client-centred ways of working when emotion and connection are central. The practice can support parents experiencing sleep or eating difficulties, stress linked to caring roles, anger, low self-esteem and the ongoing challenges of life change. Jay can also talk through concerns such as addiction, trauma, burnout and ADHD-related stresses.
Sessions are tailored to what feels useful for each person. Jay explains options, checks progress, and adjusts plans as needed so work stays relevant and manageable.

How Jay's approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values; it can be helpful for stress, anxiety and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety and lift mood. Attachment-Based ideas focus on patterns in close relationships and help people understand and change how they connect and respond to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jay will discuss these methods with each person and choose what fits best for their goals and preferences. The process is collaborative - she checks progress and adjusts the plan so sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful when visual contact helps build rapport, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or when someone prefers text. These options let people schedule therapy around work, caregiving and busy days, and make it easier to keep continuity over time.
