About Kamar

Kamar Johnson is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strains and life transitions. He also supports people facing challenges related to intimacy, career decisions and LGBT concerns.

Kamar starts from the view that the client knows their own story best. He invites people to talk through what they are facing and to build on their existing strengths. Sessions aim to be practical and direct, with space to name patterns such as people-pleasing, avoidance or difficulty saying no.

He uses a mix of Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Psychodynamic ideas. That means some work focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and some looks at past patterns that keep repeating. Conversations will shift between practical strategies and exploring where problems began.

People often seek him out for relationship concerns, feelings of abandonment or attachment worries, codependency patterns, and problems with guilt or shame. He also helps with panic attacks, social anxiety and issues that affect intimacy or trust.

In sessions Kamar aims to be straightforward and respectful. He will listen for recurring patterns and suggest manageable steps to try between meetings. He asks clients to consider what they want to change and to set short-term goals they can test in everyday life.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can help

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps when someone needs to feel heard and to sort out their own priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It is useful for anxiety, panic attacks and changing unhelpful behaviours. Psychodynamic work pays attention to past patterns and relationships that shape current reactions and choices, which can be helpful for attachment or codependency patterns.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they will try methods that suit the person, and adjust the approach as progress unfolds.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are available before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Online meetings also let someone continue work while living abroad or when relocation is a factor. Registered or accredited professionals can explain the practical setup when you book, and will help plan sessions that fit daily life.
