About Kevin

Kevin Hayman uses a person-centred approach to create a calm, respectful space for people to talk. He is a BACP counsellor with four years of experience who draws on simple, practical methods rather than jargon. Kevin writes in plain language and aims to make therapy easy to understand for busy people.

Kevin moved into counselling after a business career. That background gives him a pragmatic way of approaching everyday problems like stress, career worries and money concerns.

02

How Kevin works

He also supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, grief and addictions in straightforward conversations that focus on what matters to the individual. Sessions are warm and non-judgemental. He offers empathy and unconditional positive regard while helping people notice their own strengths.

Work can include looking at self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, sleeping or eating difficulties, and coping with life changes. Kevin also helps with deeper worries such as attachment issues, isolation or loneliness, guilt and shame, and multicultural or immigration-related concerns. He can talk through process addictions like gambling or problematic porn and exercise behaviours, and he includes coaching-style conversations about purpose and midlife concerns.

People can expect short, clear sessions that centre the person’s experience. Kevin prefers to help clients find their own answers while offering practical steps when needed. This makes therapy useful for daily stresses as well as longer-term change.

Online support options

Person-centred care and mindfulness online

Kevin works from a client-centred perspective which means the sessions focus on the person’s own experience. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps people find their own solutions, which can be especially useful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship worries and career decisions.

He also draws on mindfulness therapy, using simple awareness exercises and grounding practices to help manage anxiety, stress, and problems with sleep or rumination. Mindfulness techniques are taught in short practical steps that people can use between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kevin discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts the balance of person-centred listening and mindfulness practice to suit those needs. This is a collaborative process aimed at fitting therapy to real life.

Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals and includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls suit deeper conversations, phone can be easier where bandwidth is limited, live chat provides a quicker check-in, and messaging works well for brief reflections or continued support between sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to use around work, family life and travel.
