About Declan

Declan Kent is a registered BACP therapist who brings a practical, compassionate approach to counselling. He trained with a background in psychology and gained hands-on experience volunteering as an honorary assistant psychologist in clinical settings, where he observed a wide range of behaviours and responses to treatment. That early exposure informed his decision to complete a masters in counselling and psychotherapy, deepening his skills in assessment, clinical language and therapeutic technique.

Declan works integratively, selecting methods that fit each person rather than applying a single model to everyone. He frames therapy as a collaborative exploration, acting as a guide while recognising that clients are experts in their own lives. His practice addresses a broad spectrum of concerns, including self-esteem, depression, anxiety, stress, relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and ADHD.

Passionate about the work, Declan aims to make therapy tailored and accessible. He focuses on helping people understand their patterns, develop practical coping strategies and pursue meaningful change using approaches matched to individual needs and goals.

Integrative approaches for online therapy and support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it focuses on taking actions that align with personal values - this approach often supports issues like anxiety, low mood and challenges around motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns in relationships and emotional responses, helping people understand connection, trust and intimacy difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the centre of the process, offering a nonjudgemental, empathic space where individuals can explore their experiences and build self-understanding and self-acceptance.

Declan works collaboratively to identify which approaches, or combination of approaches, best match a person's needs, goals and preferences. He sees finding the right therapeutic method as part of the work together, adapting the plan as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Declan is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different lifestyles and communication preferences. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes and access support from wherever clients are located within the United Kingdom, while working with registered professionals and therapists who tailor the process to each individual.
