Grace Kamau , BACP

Grace Kamau is a counsellor who focuses on women's issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain and self-esteem. She speaks English and Swahili and works with people who are coping with grief, life changes, trauma and abuse. Her straightforward style aims to help someone feel heard and understood from the first conversation.

Grace uses a flexible, integrative approach that draws on different psychological ideas to match each person's needs. Sessions usually begin by identifying the most pressing concerns and practical steps that can help day to day. She emphasises empathy, honesty and a non-judgemental attitude so clients can talk openly about painful experiences.

Her work also covers more specific difficulties like attachment and abandonment worries, body image and codependency, and issues arising from divorce, infidelity or domestic violence. Grace helps people untangle family of origin problems, guilt and shame, and the isolation that can follow major life shifts.

With three years' experience and BACP listed credential, she aims to make therapy straightforward and useful rather than jargon-filled. People can expect clear conversations about goals and small, achievable steps between sessions.

Grace offers a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Those who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How evidence-based approaches meet online therapy

Grace works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques and tailors them to each person's needs. One common approach she uses is integrative work, combining practical strategies from different therapies to reduce anxiety and manage stress in daily life. This helps when someone needs clear steps for coping rather than only talking about feelings. Another frequent focus is relational and attachment-informed support, which looks at how past relationships shape present patterns and helps people change unhelpful habits in current relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Grace will discuss goals, preferences and how you respond to different methods, and then adjust the plan as you progress. That collaborative process means methods can change if something does not feel helpful or if new priorities emerge.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or cameras are an issue, and live chat or text messaging provide shorter check-ins or a way to process between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family or other commitments while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional clarity.
