About Kingsley
Kingsley Boateng is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anxiety, low mood, grief and major life changes. He works with people struggling with stress, identity questions, relationship strain, addictions and trauma. Sessions are intended to be a calm space to talk, feel heard and start to make small changes.
Kingsley adopts a warm and collaborative style. He listens first to understand a person's story, then helps them notice patterns that keep problems repeating.

He draws on a mix of practical approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT).

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotions, and work on how those emotions shape relationships and personal choices. It can be useful for people who feel stuck in repeating emotional patterns or who want clearer emotional connection with themselves and others.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on recognising difficult thoughts and feelings without fighting them, and then choosing actions that match personal values. ACT can help with anxiety, low mood and life transitions by clarifying what matters and building small, value-driven steps.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early patterns of connection and how they influence current relationships and self-view. It can be helpful for people dealing with abandonment, trust issues or attachment-related struggles.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods in session and adjust based on what helps you make progress. This collaboration is designed so treatment fits your needs rather than following a fixed plan.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when non-verbal cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging can suit brief reflections between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
