About Rajbinder
Rajbinder "Raj" Kalirai offers calm, practical support for people struggling with parenting pressures and related life stresses. She keeps sessions simple and direct so worried parents can talk about what feels most urgent. Raj listens without judgment and helps clients find small, realistic steps to feel steadier day to day.
Rajbinder has eight years of counselling experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on coping strategies, building clearer communication, and managing strong emotions such as anger or anxiety. Her work covers a wide range of concerns that can affect parents, including stress, relationship strain, grief, trauma and addiction. Raj also supports people with self-esteem, body image, career stress and compassion fatigue.
She pays attention to attachment and parenting patterns that shape day-to-day family life. Conversations are client-led and practical. Expect to talk about what’s happening now, identify small changes, and practise new ways of responding between sessions.
Raj uses mindfulness, cognitive work and emotion-focused techniques when these suit the person’s goals. Sessions are offered in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu and she accepts international clients. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging.
Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Rajbinder adapts therapy online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without being driven by them and choose actions that match their values. It can help with parenting stress and coping when life feels overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, anger or low mood. It is useful for everyday problem-solving and changing unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rajbinder will talk through your goals and preferences and suggest which combination of ACT, CBT or emotion-focused work might fit best. That decision is made together and can change as your needs evolve.
Online sessions give options to fit your life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions can be easier if you prefer not to use video or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support or when you need flexible timing. These formats help people fit therapy around childcare, work and daily routines.
