About Kam

Kam Leihal is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 18 years of experience. She offers a calm, attuned presence where people can reflect, process emotions, and work toward change at a pace that feels right. Kam shapes sessions around individual needs and prefers a gentle, collaborative way of working.

She draws on attachment-based thinking to help people understand relationship patterns and how early bonds affect present-day connections. Client-centred principles guide her to follow each person's lead and treat their experience as central. Kam also uses elements from Jungian and existential ideas to invite deeper reflection on meaning and inner life.

Her background includes work across mental health, education, and community settings. This has informed how she supports concerns such as anxiety, stress, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, and career crossroads. She also helps people facing issues with self-esteem, family problems, communication, and life transitions.

Additional areas of focus include abandonment and attachment issues, blended family challenges, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, and family of origin wounds. Kam attends to practical coping as well as the wider story behind a person's struggles. She emphasises strengths and aims to help people reconnect with their own resources.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, people follow the platform process to match with her and then schedule sessions according to her availability.

How Kam’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape present connections. In online sessions this often means talking through patterns, noticing emotional responses, and practising new ways of relating that feel safer and clearer. It can help with attachment issues, abandonment fears and family dynamics.

Client-centred counselling focuses on following the person’s lead. The therapist listens, reflects and offers space so people can find their own answers. This approach suits those wanting a supportive, non-directive space to make sense of stress, life transitions and identity questions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kam will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. The choice is collaborative and can be reviewed as therapy progresses.

Check the platform to confirm which session formats she currently offers before booking. Online therapy can make regular contact easier to fit into daily life, reduce travel time, and allow sessions during breaks from work or between other commitments. It can also allow quieter, focused check-ins when less time is available and help maintain continuity of care across locations.
