About Kanan
Kanan Robinson is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem and mood difficulties. Social anxiety and phobia are among the issues she lists, alongside problems such as panic attacks and workplace stress.
Kanan came to counselling after experiencing the benefits of having a counsellor herself. That experience led her to study a mix of approaches, and she now brings those tools into her client work. She uses Client-Centred Therapy as a base and offers other approaches alongside it when appropriate.
Sessions are shaped around what the person brings. Kanan focuses on listening, reflecting and helping clients name what is happening in their life. She offers techniques from additional modalities to complement the talking work when the client would like that option.
People meet with her to talk through grief, trauma, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, life changes and career concerns. She also works with isolation, control issues, and the emotional effects of cancer and separation. Everyday coping skills and ways to manage panic or worry are commonly covered.
Kanan explains things in plain terms and moves at a pace that suits each client. Her aim is to help people clarify their goals and try approaches that fit their preferences. To start, people complete a short questionnaire and arrange a first session to see how the work might feel.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead. Online sessions using this approach mean time is given to reflect on what matters most to the client, and the counsellor responds with summarising and questions to help make things clearer. This works well for worries about social situations, mood concerns and relationship stress.She also integrates techniques from other modalities alongside Client-Centred Therapy. These techniques are offered when the client wants extra tools to try, for example to manage panic attacks or unhelpful thought patterns. Decisions about which methods to use are made together during the early sessions so the plan fits the person’s goals and comfort level.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will help assess needs and preferences and suggest options to try. That collaborative process helps identify whether talking-focused sessions, shorter check-ins or technique-based work suit the client best.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make fitting sessions into a busy week easier and can allow for shorter check-ins or sessions without being on camera, which some people prefer when they want a lower-key way to take part.
