Registered MBACP Therapeutic Counsellor | CBT Specialist | Integrative Approach
Welcome, my name is Karen - I am so glad you are here. I believe that everyone should have a personal and safe space to explore, heal, and grow.
Life can be overwhelming at times and you may have a specific issue that you would like to make sense of to overcome. You could be facing anxiety, low mood, relationship struggles, overthinking, or simply feeling stuck. Whatever you need, I offer a calm, supportive environment where teens and adults alike can talk openly and begin to make sense of what’s going on.
As an experienced, credentialed counsellor, I am here to support you in exploring your issues, helping you to understand perhaps why you think, feel and behave the way that you do. I can provide you with tools and coping strategies, tailored to your unique needs, for you to be able to have a better experience of life. My approach is grounded in empathy, respect, and a deep belief in your ability to grow and heal. Together, we’ll explore your story and uncover the strengths and insights that already live within you.
I specialise in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), but I work primarily as an integrative counsellor - blending techniques from various therapeutic approaches to create a personalised plan that meets your counselling goals. No two people are the same, and your sessions will reflect that.
Whether you're seeking support for a specific issue or simply need someone to talk to, you're welcome here. Let’s take the next step together.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
