About Kamar

Kamar Johnson is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, depression, career strain and life changes, including social anxiety and phobia.

Kamar starts by listening to each person's story and identifying strengths they already have. He treats the person as the expert on their own life and helps them notice what is working and what gets in the way. Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward, with clear goals agreed together.

He draws on client-centred methods to keep sessions focused on the person's concerns and values. Cognitive behavioural tools are used to spot thought and behaviour patterns, and to try small experiments between sessions. Psychodynamic ideas can help uncover long-standing patterns that affect relationships and self-image.

Kamar works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, commitment worries, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and jealousy. He also supports people facing panic attacks, intimacy-related issues and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Kamar encourages practical steps people can use right away, as well as reflection on deeper themes when helpful. He accepts international clients and runs appointments from the United Kingdom, offering work in English.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The therapist uses a subscription model for bookings that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's view of their life. It helps build clarity about values and what matters most, which can reduce avoidance and increase confidence in social situations.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Online CBT often involves short practical exercises and experiments to try between sessions, which can help with panic, social anxiety and unhelpful thought patterns.

Psychodynamic Therapy explores longer-term patterns and past experiences that shape current relationships and self-esteem. This approach can help make sense of repeated relationship difficulties and feelings of abandonment or shame.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different ways of working to see what fits. Decisions about which methods to use are made together, and can change as progress is made.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, allow quieter check-ins when time is short, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can offer practical, goal-focused support over the internet when that suits a person's life.
