Surji Cair
Collaborative person-centred counsellor
About Surji
Surji Cair is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works from a person-centred perspective and focuses on supporting people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She welcomes people seeking help with major life changes and the everyday challenges that follow.
She helps people dealing with addictions, grief, trauma and intimacy-related issues. Career concerns, compassion fatigue and aspects of bipolar experience are also within her remit.
Background and approach
Surji supports LGBT clients and people managing relationship and family pressures by listening and helping them find their own solutions. Surji believes that each person knows their story best. She draws on the person-centred approach to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk and be heard.
The aim is to help people notice strengths, choose new ways of coping and take manageable steps forward. In sessions she will prioritise what matters to the client and adapt the pace to their needs. Work can include talking through difficult feelings, building day-to-day strategies and reflecting on patterns that get in the way.
She emphasises practical, simple changes alongside emotional processing. People who prefer a collaborative, warm style often find this approach useful. Surji supports clients through short-term concerns and longer personal work.
Her practice is aimed at adults in the UK and international clients who wish to work in English.

Practical therapeutic approaches and online options
Surji works from person-centred principles which focus on listening and recognising a person’s own strengths. This approach helps people who need space to make sense of difficult feelings and to decide what matters most to them.She also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with emotion regulation and day-to-day coping. These techniques break problems into manageable steps, teach practical ways to handle stress, and offer simple strategies for mood swings and anxiety.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will try methods and adapt them until something feels useful and workable for the client.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls suit in-depth, face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for people who prefer writing or need support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
