I have known Phill Kenny for over 4 years while working with him has his recruitment consultant, finding him between 5 – 10 contracts over this period of time. He worked as a counsellor in a number of different settings within the private sector and the NHS. Phil would always be the first counsellor I would approach when looking for a counsellor. The feedback he had from every manager I worked with was very good. His time keeping was always exceptional, his knowledge of the mental health industry was extensive and he was always able to work well in a team. More importantly, the feedback on this recovery rates and the way he worked with the patients in each service around the UK was next to none. His contracts were always extended due to his outstanding work and the patients wanting to continue to work with Phil. I would highly recommend Phil to anyone looking to work with him.

There comes a time in everyone’s life when they need to talk to someone about problems that have piled up but they are unable to cope with.
In this modern age a listening ear is not easy to find – people have their own problems to cope with. When someone like Phil Kenny comes along offering kindness, loyalty and most important of all a listening ear, it should be taken advantage of. I have known Phil Kenny for more years than I can remember and I have found he possesses all of the above and more

Phil is an excellent mental health counsellor and works to the highest professional standards. He is compassionate, sensitive and yet analytical when working with clients and is able to draw on years of clinical experience and a significant depth of knowledge.
When he worked for our service, Phil demonstrated high levels of energy and enthusiasm at all times and was fully committed to supporting patients, always “going the extra mile” for them. He possesses a great deal of professional integrity in his work with clients and keeps them in mind between sessions always reflecting on how he can improve his support for them.
If you are seeking counselling, I would recommend Phil wholeheartedly: you will be in good hands.

I’ve worked with Phil for a number of years now. I first found Phil a locum contract in late 2015. Since then, Phil has worked on multiple contracts with Pulse across a number of locations. I have always found Phil to be an ethical and diligent Counsellor. Whether starting new contracts, or finishing current contracts, Phil has always maintained that patient safety is at the forefront of his decisions. Pulse pride ourselves on working with high calibre candidates and I am always confident in Phil representing our agency. It’s a pleasure working with Phil and I hope to do so for many more years to come.

Phil has worked as a locum counsellor for the Trust twice now and I am always willing to welcome him back to the team. He is a very experienced, calm and intuitive counsellor. He shows a natural curiosity and genuine interest in what his clients bring to sessions and uses supervision and case discussions effectively to enable him to work with his clients and to empower them in their lives.
He is gentle in his manner and builds relationships easily in a non- threatening way enabling his clients to work well with him. Phil has a good working knowledge of work related stressors and the distress that these can evoke in the workplace. He works well with a diverse work population across all ages and genders.
