Kanan Robinson, BACP

Kanan Robinson trained in counselling after first exploring how people think and change. She holds a BACP credential and brings three years of professional experience in therapeutic work. Kanan frames sessions around empathy and respect, aiming to help people name the issues that matter to them and find ways forward.

She began her path by studying neuro-linguistic programming, hypnotherapy and timeline therapy, taking those skills to a master level. That clinical background sits alongside her four years of counselling training and informs how she tailors sessions. Kanan often offers techniques drawn from those earlier approaches when they suit a person’s goals.

Kanan works with a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and issues around self-esteem. She also supports people facing relationship or family difficulties, parenting strain, workplace problems, career changes and challenges such as eating or sleep difficulties.

Her practice also covers more specific areas like cancer-related distress, control issues, divorce and separation, panic attacks, self-harm, social anxiety and loneliness. Kanan aims to help people identify practical steps and build coping skills they can try between sessions.

Sessions are led by the person attending and proceed at a pace that feels manageable. Kanan describes her approach as humanistic and integrative, blending counselling with techniques from her other modalities to suit individual needs. She invites an open conversation in the first meeting to agree goals and how to work towards them.

How Kanan's Client-Centred Approach Works Online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping people find their own solutions. The therapist offers a non-judgemental space and reflects back what is shared to help clarify feelings and goals. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and times of life change.

The practice also draws on techniques from neuro-linguistic programming and hypnotherapy that Kanan studied earlier in her career. Those methods provide extra tools she may invite people to try, such as guided exercises or different ways of thinking about problems. When used, they are integrated with a client-centred way of working rather than replacing it.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy and is decided together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest what might suit you best. That collaborative process helps shape session focus and any practical exercises to try between meetings.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please check available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support consistent progress when life makes attending in person harder, and therapists can adapt exercises to suit the way you meet.
