About Graham Kennish

Graham Kennish offers a concise and practical approach to emotional and behavioural challenges, focusing on brief, skill-based work that can show whether it helps within two or three sessions. He teaches clients a sequence of gestures - physical patterns that accompany awareness and intention - as tools to reduce tension, clear the mind, and rebuild confidence. Those who learn the pattern can practise it independently between sessions, with as much follow-up support as they prefer, until the new responses replace older reactive habits.

Graham does not rely on a long, developing therapeutic relationship to produce change; instead he provides a warm, supportive beginning and practical instruction so clients can quickly assess fit and progress. If the method does not suit someone after the first session, the time invested is minimal and he encourages timely exploration of other options. He has 14 years of professional experience and has worked with this particular gesture-based method for nine years. Graham is a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which indicates recognised professional training and adherence to ethical standards. He practises in the United Kingdom and offers work that emphasises rapid learning, home practice, and gradual restoration of personal agency so individuals feel more in command of their responses.

Client-Centered and Mindfulness Approaches for Online Work



Graham integrates client-centered therapy, which prioritises the individual's experience and supports change through empathy, active listening, and collaborative goal-setting. This approach helps people who need a respectful, non-directive space to explore feelings and decide what changes matter most. He also uses mindfulness therapy, which brings gentle attention to present-moment experience through simple awareness practices; this can help with stress, anxiety, and habits that arise from automatic reactions.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Graham works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He helps clients trial techniques and adapts the plan as progress becomes clear, supporting gradual development rather than imposing a single model.

Online therapy with Graham is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility in how and when sessions take place. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, support ongoing practice between sessions, and enable access for people who live outside his immediate area or prefer remote work.
