About Grace

Grace Kamau is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, life changes, and trauma and abuse. Grace also addresses concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, codependency, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, domestic violence, emptiness, family of origin issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity, and isolation.

Grace uses an integrative approach that draws on different psychological ideas. She adapts what happens in sessions to each person's situation rather than following one fixed method. Sessions are conversational and focus on practical ways to make sense of feelings and reactions.

People can expect a calm, steady way of working. Grace emphasises empathy, being genuine, and offering non-judgemental regard. She aims to prioritise the person's concerns and to create a consistently respectful space for difficult topics.

In practice she helps people talk through what keeps them stuck and experiments with small changes outside sessions. That might mean trying different ways to respond in relationships, testing coping steps for anxiety, or practising clearer communication. She explains ideas plainly and checks in about what feels useful.

Grace speaks English and Swahili. She works with adults in the UK and does not take international clients. To begin the process a person completes a short matching questionnaire and arranges a first session through the online booking flow that accompanies her profile.

How Grace uses different approaches in online sessions

Grace works from an integrative base that draws on evidence-based techniques and adapts them to the person's concerns. For example, she may use cognitive-style work to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. This can help with anxiety, shame, and self-critical thinking. She also draws on relational ideas that focus on attachment and communication patterns. These approaches look at how past relationships influence current reactions and practical steps for clearer interaction with others. They are useful when issues stem from abandonment, attachment, or communication problems. Finding the right combination of approaches is collaborative. Grace will listen to the person's goals and preferences, explain the options in plain terms, and try different techniques to see what fits. She checks in regularly about what is helpful and changes the approach when needed. If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking as they are listed during the sign-up process. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow quieter check-ins when time is limited, or remove the need to travel. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use online sessions to offer those practical benefits while working through anxiety, relationship issues, guilt and shame, and life transitions.
