Grace Kamau

Grace Kamau welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship pain, grief or changes in life. She is a BACP practitioner who speaks English and Swahili and aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk things through.

Grace uses a flexible, person-centred way of working. She listens first and asks about what matters most to the person sitting in front of her. Conversations focus on what the client wants to change and on small, practical steps that make daily life easier.

Her therapy style is warm and direct. She strives to offer empathy, honesty and steady support while people make sense of painful events. This approach is intended to help with things like self-esteem, family of origin issues, feelings of emptiness and difficulties with communication.

Grace also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, domestic violence, abandonment and attachment concerns. She can help people process guilt, shame, infidelity, divorce and separation in a way that keeps the person’s priorities central.

With three years of practice, she blends listening with simple strategies people can use between sessions. The work is shaped around the client’s goals and pace, and she encourages people to take manageable steps towards feeling more in control.

To begin, she asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book according to available times. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Grace uses therapeutic techniques online

Grace draws on several evidence-based techniques to help people manage distress and rebuild stability. One common approach is person-centred work, which focuses on listening, empathy and helping a person identify their own solutions to problems. This helps with self-esteem, loneliness and finding direction after major life changes.

Another approach involves practical problem-solving and coping strategies. These techniques teach simple skills for managing anxiety, stress and difficult emotions between sessions. They are useful for people who want tools to use in everyday life, such as breathing or grounding ideas and clearer ways to communicate needs.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they try different ways of working and adapt the plan as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking. When offered, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. They can also allow for shorter check-ins or flexible timing when life is hectic. Talk with the therapist about what will fit your routine and needs so sessions feel manageable and useful.
