About Graham

Graham Kennish offers a focused, practical approach that helps people discover whether a short course of therapy can meet their needs. He greets each client with a warm and supportive manner while introducing a method that emphasises simple physical gestures alongside conversation to reduce pressure and relieve tension. Over the course of two or three sessions a client will learn a small repertoire of gestures that can be practised between appointments, with ongoing support available from Graham as required.

The intention is to create new, helpful patterns of response that gradually replace old reactive habits, so that clients feel clearer-headed, calmer and more confident in everyday situations. This way of working does not depend on a long developing relationship with the therapist; instead it aims to produce practical tools quickly, allowing people to make progress without extended commitment to sessions they do not find helpful.

Graham has been working with this specific method for the last 9 years and brings broader clinical experience to his practice. He is accredited with BACP, which means he is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and follows recognised professional standards.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Client-Centered Therapy is an empathic, non-directive approach in which the therapist offers understanding and support while helping the client explore their own priorities and solutions. It is suited to people seeking a respectful, collaborative space to work through stress, relationship concerns or emotional difficulties. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and awareness skills that help people stay present, reduce habitual reactivity and manage anxiety or fluctuating moods; these practices can be used alongside other techniques to improve day-to-day coping.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Graham treats that as a collaborative process, discussing the client’s goals and preferences and adapting methods so the chosen way of working fits the person and their circumstances. He will help identify which techniques to try first and review progress together.

Online therapy with Graham is offered by video call, phone session, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit sessions around work, family and travel. These formats make it easier to access support from different locations, maintain continuity between appointments and practise learned skills in real life with accessible follow-up from a registered professional.
