About Rav

Rav Kaur offers calm, down-to-earth support for people facing pregnancy and childbirth related stress and other life changes. She writes simply and listens closely, helping people talk through anxiety, grief and painful past experiences. Sessions aim to feel practical and steady rather than rushed or clinical.

Rav has five years of professional experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She frames conversations around what matters to the person in front of her and adapts each session to individual needs. That might mean looking at thoughts that feed worry, exploring attachment patterns from earlier relationships, or practising mindful ways to cope with overwhelming feelings.

Her approach draws on client-centred work that prioritises the person’s own goals and pace. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and develop small, doable changes. Attachment-based ideas help when past losses or early relationship patterns are still affecting how someone copes now.

People come to her for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, body image and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Rav also supports those struggling with addiction, parenting stress, career changes and compassion fatigue. She speaks English and Punjabi, and works with people across the United Kingdom and beyond.

To begin, she asks people to say what they hope to change and then builds a straightforward plan together. Sessions focus on clear steps and practical coping skills alongside time to reflect on deeper experiences.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationships influence current reactions and connection. Online sessions can help identify patterns that affect intimacy and parenting, and then practise different ways of relating in everyday life.

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following the person's priorities. In an online setting this means the counsellor reflects concerns, asks clear questions and helps the person set goals that matter to them.

Cognitive behavioural therapy concentrates on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioural experiments. It is useful for anxiety, mood difficulties and coping with change, and can include homework tasks to practise between sessions.

Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and adjust methods to match the client's needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative process helps people feel more confident about the direction of therapy.

Confirm the session formats available before you book, as they are not listed here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work, medical appointments or childcare, and allows shorter check-ins when needed. It also removes travel time and can help people maintain continuity during pregnancy and after childbirth when routines shift.
