About Kam
Kam Leihal is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing anxiety, stress, relationship strain and big life changes. She offers a calm, attuned presence where clients can reflect and work through painful feelings. Kam writes simply and kindly, aiming to make first steps easier for someone who is worried or uncertain.
She draws on over 18 years of practice across mental health, education and community settings.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs and pace, with practical conversation, gentle exploration of patterns, and space for emotion. That style helps with issues such as low self-esteem, grief, trauma and parenting pressures. Kam uses a mix of approaches including attachment-based thinking, client-centred conversation, existential reflection, Jungian ideas and mindfulness practices.
These methods are used together to notice recurring themes, build self-understanding, and create new ways of responding to stress and relationship problems. She has worked with people dealing with abandonment wounds, blended family challenges, communication problems, and the fallout from separation or immigration. Kam also addresses body image, caregiver stress, codependency, and questions about life purpose or midlife transitions.
In sessions she aims to be practical and present, helping people find steady routines, clearer boundaries and kinder self-talk. The work is collaborative: goals are agreed together and adjusted as things change. Kam invites people to explore what matters to them and to take manageable steps toward feeling more grounded.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions will look at patterns of closeness and distance so people can try different ways of connecting and reduce relationship anxiety.Client-centred counselling puts the person’s experience at the heart of the session. The therapist listens without judgement, mirrors what is said and helps people find their own answers to problems like low self-esteem or stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the journey. Kam will talk with each person about their concerns, goals and preferences and then shape the work together. That collaborative planning can include trying different methods and checking in regularly about what feels most helpful.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a calmer audio-only check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions or people who find writing easier than talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel.
