About Kanan
Kanan Robinson is a counsellor who came to the profession after experiencing therapy firsthand. She holds a BACP accreditation and has three years of practice supporting people through difficult times. Her approach is guided by listening and respect, with the aim of helping clients name what feels hard and work through it at their own pace.
Kanan uses a client-centred way of working that keeps the person’s priorities at the centre.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what the client wants to address, from stress and anxiety to grief and trauma. She also brings additional techniques that some clients find helpful alongside counselling. People often seek her out for mood concerns such as depression, panic or low self-esteem.
She also supports practical life challenges like workplace stress, coping with change, relationship difficulties and parenting strain. Kanan lists eating and sleeping problems, anger, and issues around self-harm and isolation among the matters she helps people talk through. Her practice covers a wide range of life events, including bereavement, divorce and separation, and illness-related concerns such as coping with cancer.
She works on short-term goals and deeper patterns depending on what a person needs. Kanan aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can explore feelings and try new ways of coping. Sessions are collaborative and paced by the client, with practical suggestions offered when helpful.

How client-centred approaches work online
Kanan uses client-centred therapy, which centres sessions on the person's priorities and pace. This approach focuses on listening, understanding and the client’s own goals; it can help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and trauma-related distress.She also draws on additional complementary techniques when they fit the client’s needs. These tools can offer practical exercises and different ways to manage symptoms or practise new responses. Together the counsellor and client decide which methods to try and when to adapt the plan.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kanan will talk through options during the first sessions and tailor the work to someone’s problems, goals and preferences. Clients are invited to give feedback and steer the pace and focus as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which allow greater flexibility for busy schedules. Video works well when a fuller conversation is needed, while phone calls can suit people who prefer not to be on camera. Chat or messaging can provide shorter check-ins and let people reflect in writing between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
