About Shallu

Shallu Singh offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, trauma or family strain. She helps parents and individuals who struggle with low self-esteem, anger, or motivation to find clearer ways forward. Sessions are gentle and focused on real-life steps you can use between meetings.

Singh is an AASW social worker, which means she holds the credential AASW. She brings three years of clinical experience working with issues such as depression, postpartum difficulties, immigration stress and cultural adjustment.

How Shallu works

Her work also covers sexual assault and abuse, domestic violence, and other trauma-related concerns. Her approach combines several well-known methods. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take small meaningful actions.

Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking and build practical coping skills. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused work guide conversations about close relationships and communication patterns. Client-centred principles shape the space - listening first, then responding with understanding rather than judgement.

This mix aims to be both compassionate and action-oriented. Sessions are offered in English, Hindi and Punjabi and can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. The focus is on helping people make steady progress, whether they are recovering from past trauma, working on relationships, or managing everyday anxiety.

If someone is unsure where to begin, Singh encourages a short conversation to set goals and agree on the best way to work together.

How these approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed actions even when feelings are difficult. Online ACT sessions usually involve values work, simple exercises and practical steps to try between meetings.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting. Delivered remotely, CBT often uses short exercises, worksheets and goal-focused homework to build coping skills.

Attachment-based work and emotionally-focused ideas look at how people relate to others and how emotions shape interactions. These approaches help with communication problems, attachment issues and relationship patterns through reflective conversation and structured exercises.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will ask about your goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you decide which methods to try and adjust them as you go.

Online therapy offers practical benefits like flexible scheduling and easier access from different locations. Video calls let you work face to face, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins or days when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around family and work commitments while still using the same therapeutic tools.
