About Bupinderjeet
Bupinderjeet (aka Vicky) Kooner is a counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes. She makes space for parents and other adults who need support with parenting concerns, depression, relationship strain or grief. Her manner is calm and straightforward, and she works to build a trusting relationship from the first session.
Vicky trained and practised in the United Kingdom and has 18 years of experience as a therapist.
Background and approach
Much of her work has been within NHS adult mental health services and staff wellbeing roles. She also has experience supporting people affected by sexual assault and incest trauma. Her approach is person-centred.
That means conversations are led by the client’s priorities, with the counsellor offering empathy and practical questions to help clarify next steps. She also draws on attachment ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Vicky uses tools from motivational interviewing and narrative and solution-focused work when clients want practical change.
These methods help people set manageable goals, reframe difficult stories, and build confidence to try new behaviours. She is attentive to cultural diversity and welcomes people from varied backgrounds. Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messages.
Fees vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and book a session according to the therapist’s schedule.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Vicky commonly uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. This helps people who notice repeated difficulties in close connections or who want to understand why they react the way they do. She also works in a client-centred way, which means conversations follow what the person brings and the counsellor reflects and asks questions to help make things clearer.Motivational interviewing is another approach she draws on when someone wants to make a change. It focuses on exploring motivation, weighing options and setting achievable steps rather than pushing solutions. Together these styles aim to balance understanding past influences with practical steps for the present.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods might help most. Decisions are made collaboratively so the work fits your needs and pace.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets you use face-to-face conversation from wherever you are, phone calls can be easier if bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging suits quick check-ins or shorter exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments.
