About Kenneth
Kenneth 'Ken' Mitchell is a counsellor who works from a client-centred stance. He focuses on stress, anxiety, depression and related struggles. He speaks plainly and gives space for people to tell their story in their own words.
Ken believes people are the experts on their own lives. He listens for strengths and practical steps. Sessions aim to build confidence, improve motivation and find ways to manage difficult feelings.
Over a decade of practice has given him experience with grief, addictions and issues around relationships and intimacy.
Background and approach
He also supports people dealing with sleeping or eating problems, anger, ADHD and life transitions. His work includes helping those navigating family problems and parenting strains. Ken uses client-centred techniques that put the person’s priorities first.
He pairs that with solution-focused methods to identify small, helpful changes. Together these approaches help people set clear goals and try out new ways of coping. He holds BACP as a listed professional credential and practises in the United Kingdom.
Sessions are conducted in English by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. The format aims to fit around work and family commitments. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.
Ken seeks to create a calm, straightforward space for people to begin making practical changes.

Online support
Solution-Focused Therapy looks for practical, achievable changes. It helps people set small goals and try different behaviours between sessions to see what works. This method is often helpful for stress, anxiety and short-term problem solving.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to each person's needs and preferences, adjusting the approach as goals change. Clients and the therapist agree on what to focus on and how progress will be measured.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility around work and family life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule while keeping a steady therapeutic focus.
