About Kanan

Kanan Robinson is a counsellor who came to the profession after experiencing therapy herself. She values a respectful, empathetic approach and aims to create a steady space where people can talk about the things that trouble them. Kanan holds BACP accreditation, which is noted as BACP, and has three years of professional experience in the field.

She uses a humanistic, person-led way of working. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on what the person wants to change.

Background and approach

Kanan also draws on additional tools alongside counselling to offer different ways of working when needed. Kanan helps with common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low mood and grief. She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, parenting pressures, sleep and eating difficulties, and the emotional effects of illness such as cancer.

Work and career issues, feelings of isolation, and navigating life changes are part of her practice as well. Sessions are available across a range of remote formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Therapy follows a collaborative rhythm where goals and approaches are agreed together, and practical options are discussed as things progress.

People who choose Kanan can expect a steady, conversational style. She aims to help clients identify what they want to change, try different techniques, and make manageable steps forward. The emphasis is on listening, reflection and practical options suited to each person’s situation.

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person as the expert on their own life. The counsellor listens without judgement and reflects back what they hear, helping people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and parenting pressures because it concentrates on the client’s priorities rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Kanan also blends other practical tools into sessions when helpful. These additions offer alternative ways to try things differently, such as changing unhelpful habits or practising new responses to stress. Together they give options to work on specific issues like sleep, eating concerns, panic or coping with major life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods to use based on goals and preferences. Sessions are reviewed and adapted as needed so the plan stays relevant and useful.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual connection for deeper conversation. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit shorter check-ins or moments when writing feels easier. These options help maintain continuity and make it simpler to keep therapy in someone’s routine.
