About Kamaljit

Kamaljit "Kam" Aulakh helps people address a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, addictions and ageing and geriatric issues. She works with issues around self-esteem, parenting, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD and coping with life changes. Kam offers support in English and Punjabi and accepts international clients from the United Kingdom.

Kam describes therapy as a practical conversation. She listens without judgement and helps people make sense of painful thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to reduce overthinking, manage difficult emotions, and find steps that fit into everyday life. The focus is on small, usable changes rather than abstract theory.

Her approach blends relational and integrative ideas with recognised methods such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based work. That means attention to how relationships and past experiences shape current reactions, alongside practical tools to shift unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused ideas are used when the work centres on connection and intimacy.

Kam holds BACP accreditation, which indicates she has met the association's standards for practice and ethics. She draws on additional skills from coaching, neuro-linguistic programming, mindfulness and Emotional Focus Tapping. These are used to build self-worth, confidence and clearer personal direction.

Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to talk through painful memories, trauma, or everyday stressors. Kam aims to help people reclaim energy and clarity so they can move forward from difficult chapters of life.

Online therapy approaches and how they help

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current reactions. It can help people understand patterns in close relationships and reduce repeated conflicts or avoidance. Client-Centred Therapy gives the person space to speak and be heard without judgement; this approach helps when someone needs to rebuild self-worth and confidence. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful behaviours and manage mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and together they will try methods that fit the person's situation. That collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It may allow quieter, shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to arrange appointments across time zones. Because session formats in this profile are not specified, confirm the exact online options available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can guide you on which approach and format best match your needs.
