Kenny Pang, BACP

Kenny Pang is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. He brings a warm, empathic style and sometimes uses light humour to help people feel at ease. Kenny works in English and Cantonese and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

He focuses on everyday problems that feel overwhelming - stress, anxiety, depression and grief. He also supports people dealing with addictions, intimacy-related concerns, body image and self-esteem. Relationship strain, attachment worries and unresolved trauma are other areas he regularly addresses.

Kenny blends a few practical approaches rather than relying on any single method. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people accept difficult feelings while moving toward what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and change patterns that keep problems going. He also draws on client-centred and psychodynamic ideas to understand life stories and how they affect current choices.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and down to earth. Kenny listens closely, helps people set goals, and works with what the person finds useful. If he feels another professional would be a better fit, he will recommend a referral.

People usually begin by describing the issue that brought them to therapy. From there Kenny tailors the pace and approach to the person’s needs, keeping the work practical and focused on change.

How Kenny’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take steps that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and problems with avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and trying small experiments to change them, which can be practical for mood, obsessions and compulsions and many anxieties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kenny will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether to lean more on ACT, CBT or a client-centred conversation style, and the plan can change as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send short check-ins or write about thoughts between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy going around work and life commitments, while keeping focus on the issues that brought someone to counselling.
