Rashpal Panesar-Gipson (They/She)
Personal Consultant, Counsellor, Life Coach
I am a Personal Consultant, Counsellor and Life Coach.
Take a look at the different headings below to find out more about each approach.
What is Personal Consultancy?
The Personal Consultancy approach brings together integrative counselling and coaching, supporting you through sharing what is happening, exploring the inner challenges you might be facing, coming to some acceptance and understanding of these, and helping you to take and sustain action.
I will generally work with you through this model, but if you prefer to work within a strictly counselling or coaching approach we can do this- please see more about these services below. We can return to the Personal consultancy model at any time.
In all of my work, the focus is on collaboration, building a trusting relationship, where you can feel confident that the sessions will meet your needs. I am passionate about acknowledging and working with your intersectional position in the world, which may include the impact of wider societal systems, intergenerational themes and transgenerational knowledge.
Personal Consultancy Practicalities
All of my services are currently online. Personal consultancy sessions will generally be 50 minutes, until we move into the more action-oriented work when we may agree to move to 60 minute sessions. If you have any access needs, we can discuss how to make sessions work for you.
Personal Consulting is charged at £65-£70 per session. I offer low cost spaces, but these are currently full.
What is Integrative Counselling?
Integrative counselling involves working with you to gain a substantive understanding and awareness of the issues you are dealing with, and exploring how to resolve or come to terms with these issues. These could be for example, anxiety, low mood, depresssion, anger, confusion.
We explore understanding at an emotional level, as well as your thoughts, actions and bodily sensations. It is likely that there will be some exploration of the past and future as well as the present, potentially including experiences which may be held in your family or community history, such as intergenerational trauma or systemic marginalisation.
Sessions involve sharing your experience, developing understanding and strategies that are right for you. You will generally do most of the talking and I will help to facilitate the space and time so that you can reflect, let things sink in and connect with what feels right for you as a next step. We can work with the past, present and future in whichever ways feel good to you.
I utilise elements of different counselling approaches to work with people at different stages of counselling with their varying needs. My training has included Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Gestalt, Transactional analysis, and CBT approaches.

What is Coaching?
Coaching sessions are more action oriented, with a clear goal to work towards. These sessions may involve particular tools to get to the bottom of challenges and opportunities, or may be more of a verbal exploration of the internal state of mind or behaviours which may help you get to where you want to go. During a coaching session we will explore your values, strengths and passions. We will get a clear picture of what is happening and use a range of tools to plan out how you can reach your goals and aspirations. Sustainability of your goals is vital so part of coaching work will involve sessions which focus on accountability, challenge and ensuring your goals are the right ones for you right now.
Coaching Practicalities
All of my services are currently online. Coaching sessions are 60-90 minutes. If you have any access needs, we can discuss how to make sessions work for you.

“Following my session with you I took control of my life and made changes . I gave in my notice as I was so unhappy, I am now having 2 months off before I start my new job.
I am back in control and I’m happy.”
