About Karen
She has experience working with both children and adults and specialises in supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse.

Karen works collaboratively with each person to help them name what feels difficult and to discover practical steps forward.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating that form in close relationships. In accessible terms, it helps people understand how early connections influence current reactions and relationship dynamics, and it can be useful for issues like attachment concerns, intimacy-related problems, and relationship distress.
Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the centre of the process, emphasising empathy, active listening, and the therapist's nonjudgmental presence. This approach supports people working through stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions by helping them uncover their own goals and solutions.
Trauma-Focused Therapy offers structured ways to address the aftereffects of traumatic experiences, helping individuals process difficult memories and reduce the impact of trauma-related symptoms. It can be particularly helpful for those coping with abuse, loss, or other deeply distressing events.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Karen works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods feel most appropriate for their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adapting techniques as understanding deepens.
Online therapy with Karen is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and access support from familiar surroundings while working with licensed professionals and therapists committed to practical, compassionate help.
