About Manjinder
Manjinder Sanghera-Palmer is a UK-based counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem and depression. She works with concerns around parenting, grief, addictions, sleep problems and coping with life changes. Her approach is warm and respectful, aimed at helping people feel heard and clearer about next steps.
She uses a person-centred style that places the client's experience at the heart of the conversation. That means sessions focus on what matters to the individual and move at a pace they find comfortable.
Background and approach
Manjinder also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns and close connections. In sessions she listens carefully and tailors the dialogue to each person. Together they identify practical ways to manage difficult feelings and improve everyday routines.
Work might include noticing patterns, trying small experiments, or rehearsing different ways to communicate. Manjinder holds BACP accreditation, which reflects professional standards in the UK. She has three years of professional experience working with a broad range of concerns, and she accepts international clients who can attend online sessions.
Her tone is supportive and empowering. She encourages people to take small steps and notices progress along the way. If someone wants a straightforward, compassionate counsellor who focuses on practical change, she may be a good match.

Approaches Manjinder lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
How attachment and person-centred work online
Manjinder uses client-centred counselling which places the person's experience at the centre of the session. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting back what the client says, and helping people find their own solutions to issues like stress, low self-esteem or life transitions.She also uses attachment-based ideas to explore how past relationships shape current patterns. This can help when trust, closeness or communication are causing problems in parenting or intimate relationships, and it offers ways to practise different responses in day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to decide what feels most helpful based on goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can be reviewed as work progresses to make sure sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, people who prefer typing, or those who need to fit a session into a work break. Registered professionals can deliver these formats so people can access counselling from different locations and on schedules that work for them.
