About Kingsley

Kingsley Boateng welcomes people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. He offers a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through anxiety, depression, grief, identity questions, relationship worries and major life changes. Sessions are conversational and paced to the individual.

He draws on several well-known approaches and adapts them to what each person needs. That can mean learning simple tools to manage anxiety, looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, or using mindfulness to reduce reactivity.

Background and approach

Work often focuses on practical steps that fit into daily life. Kingsley describes his manner as warm and collaborative. He aims to listen without judgement and to help people make sense of recurring patterns.

Together with a client he sets goals and reviews progress as therapy continues. He provides affirming support for people exploring sexual and gender identity and those who identify as LGBT. Cultural background and personal history are treated as important parts of the conversation.

With seven years of experience and professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and NCPS, he works with adults on issues such as addiction, trauma, self-esteem, parenting stress, and sleep or eating difficulties. Sessions can be arranged to suit different schedules and preferences. Many clients start therapy unsure where to begin.

Kingsley helps break concerns down into manageable steps and supports people as they build confidence and healthier routines.

Ways of working Kingsley names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them and to act in ways that reflect their values. It can help when life changes feel overwhelming or when avoidance keeps someone stuck.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and trying practical strategies to change them. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and managing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try. This collaborative process means approaches can be blended and adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging lets people reflect between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and busy days, while still using the same therapeutic tools as in-person work.
