What to expect
Each session lasts 50 minutes with an introductory assessment. During the assessment I will explore your current issues, a brief background history and discuss the best course of therapy for you. My role as a counsellor is to support you and help facilitate change with a therapeutic alliance. I work from an integrative approach, a combination of person centred, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural therapy.
My Accreditations

"I had a free therapy session with Karen, which is the first therapy I've had of any kind in 31 years. I found Karen had a calming aura and an understanding tone where I felt I was really being listened to which in turn made me feel comfortable enough to open up and talk. This session has definitely made me revaluate how I'll be moving forward with working through my issues. I think the more time spent with Karen, having regular conversations will only impact my life in a positive way."

"Working with Karen was a great help to me during a difficult period of my life. She assisted me in putting things into perspective and provided me with different tools enabling me to move forward and deal with the various situations. Her professionalism, kindness, warmth and open personality made me feel at ease from day one."

"Karen was the guest speaker at our weekly focus group. Her kind and friendly nature quickly put those in the group at ease and invited conversation and debate. Karen presented a complex subject in a way that was understandable and gave practical tools to help the group in their everyday life. I can't express enough how grateful we were to have her join the group."
