About Kam

Kam Leihal is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 18 years of experience. She works with relationship difficulties, self‑esteem struggles, stress and anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns and life changes. Kam also lists a focus on guilt and shame alongside issues such as attachment, abandonment and family of origin problems.

Kam uses a gentle, collaborative style in sessions. She arranges the work with each person so it moves at a comfortable pace. Conversations often include reflecting on personal patterns, exploring feelings, and trying out new ways of responding in everyday life.

Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, existential perspectives and elements of Jungian and mindfulness approaches. That mix is used to help people make meaning of difficult experiences and notice recurring relational patterns. Expressive arts and systemic family thinking also inform her work in broad terms.

Kam has supported people across mental health, education and community settings, and describes an approach that is calm and attuned. She aims to help people reconnect with their own resources when coping with major life changes or ongoing stresses.

If guilt or shame are part of what you carry, Kam can help you talk through where those feelings come from and how they affect your life. To begin you follow the site's matching steps and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment‑based work pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions using this lens help people notice attachment responses and practice different ways of relating to others and themselves. Client‑centred work focuses on careful listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. In an online conversation this means the counsellor follows the client's pace and prioritises what the client brings each week.

These styles can help with guilt and shame, relationship difficulties, and life changes by making space to examine what you believe about yourself and others. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kam will collaborate with each person to identify which methods feel most useful, and she adjusts the work as needs and goals become clearer.

The original biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know whether meetings are by video, phone or another method. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, for example by saving travel time, allowing a shorter check‑in during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for a particular session. Registered or accredited professionals can use these practical choices to help therapy fit around work, caregiving or other commitments.
