About Saman
Saman Kaur is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing parenting stress and related life pressures. She aims to help clients notice what gets in the way, strengthen their coping skills, and find small, workable changes that fit daily life. Her style is collaborative and conversational, so people can talk through what matters most to them.
She uses a pluralistic way of working, which means she draws on different methods to match each person's needs rather than following a single technique.
Background and approach
In practical terms this can include exploring thoughts and feelings, identifying patterns that cause difficulty, and trying out alternative ways of responding to situations. Sessions focus on understanding what has brought someone to counselling and on making sense of how those problems affect day-to-day life. Conversations often look at relationships, communication, boundaries, and how past experiences shape current reactions.
The aim is to build awareness and practical strategies to manage stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, and parenting pressures. Saman is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works within their codes of ethics. She keeps session work collaborative and centred on the person's goals, discussing options and adapting her approach as required.
People can expect straightforward language and a calm, respectful space to reflect and plan next steps.

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting support
Many of Saman's sessions draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques adapted to the online setting. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviours, helping people try different responses and develop practical coping skills for anxiety, low mood, and parenting stress. Another approach attends to attachment and relationship patterns, looking at how early experiences influence current relationships and communication, which can help with intimacy issues, family dynamics, and feelings of abandonment.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client assess what feels most useful, try methods in session, and adapt the plan as goals evolve. This collaborative process helps people find approaches that fit their situation and parenting concerns.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more visual contact helps. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or times with less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for ongoing support, brief reflections, or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare, and daily life while keeping the focus on practical progress and emotional support.
