More about Karen

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

As a qualified Integrative Counsellor, I offer a tailored, client-centered approach that blends evidence-based techniques with deep empathy and insight. My approach is bespoke to your unique needs, goals, and life perspective; drawing from psychodynamic, person-centred, and cognitive-behavioural frameworks. Each session is carefully adapted to cultivate self-regulation, communication, and trust.

Whether you're navigating stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, I work alongside you to explore the roots of your concerns, build resilience, and empower lasting change. My clients are often looking for more than surface-level support, they seek a trusted, skilled practitioner to help them break long-standing patterns and strengthen emotional intelligence.

My practice is built on trust, compassion, confidentiality, and commitment to your well-being, providing a calm, non-judgmental environment where you can feel truly heard. Clients often tell me they value my ability to listen without agenda and support them making meaningful, sustainable shifts in their lives.

In our work together, you can expect a confidential, safe space where insight, depth, and strategy meet. My commitment is supporting you create a life that feels purposeful, empowered, and whole.

I work with a limited number of clients to ensure the highest level of focus, care, and continuity.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
