Kingsley Boateng

Kingsley Boateng is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anger, anxiety and life changes. He works in English and Akan and draws on seven years of practice in the United Kingdom. He aims to make sessions straightforward and respectful so people can talk without feeling judged.

His approach is collaborative and calm. He uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred ideas to shape sessions around each person’s needs. He also includes elements from attachment-based and dialectical behaviour approaches when they fit the situation.

People often come with grief, relationship strain, low self-esteem or problems with sleep and eating. He also supports those dealing with trauma, addiction, career stress, compassion fatigue and identity exploration, including LGBT concerns and GSRD issues. Anger is a named focus and is addressed through practical strategies and clearer understanding of triggers.

Sessions focus on understanding patterns, building coping skills and trying small changes between meetings. Kingsley helps people set realistic goals and notices what works for them. He aims to restore confidence and help people manage emotions more effectively in daily life.

He is registered with BACP and NCPS, and works with adults from different backgrounds. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the available times shown when booking.

How different approaches inform online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without fighting them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, anger and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. That approach often helps with stress, low mood, sleep and eating issues. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current reactions and can help with intimacy, trust and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey. The therapist will work together with each person to identify which methods suit their goals and preferences. Sessions can mix ideas from different approaches so the plan fits what a person needs right now rather than sticking to one model.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes access possible for people living abroad or with mobility or health challenges. Kingsley will discuss practical arrangements and what to expect so sessions fit into everyday life and support the work you want to do.
