We all face Challenges and internal conflicts at some point in our lives; there are three solutions to every problem; Accept it, change it or leave it. If you are reading this profile you are probably on the road of wanting change, you don't have to struggle in silence and the time for change is now. The most important ingredient of change is the acknowledgment of the situation.Sometimes it can be very hard to explain what is going on in your head or your heart when you don't even understand it yourself , this is where speaking to someone with decades of experience makes a difference.

My caseload is full so I am not able to take on new clients until September '26. I work with people from all walks and with many issues but all feel a need to change something in their lives. I can create a safe space to explore and understand the problems you bring, both individually or together with partners. I have helped many clients deal with the issues arising from depression, self doubt, anxiety and trauma, or changing notions of self worth, especially in the face of work stress.

You may be a high-functioning professional who may be very capable on the outside, yet internally struggling with anxiety, overthinking, perfectionism, or feeling stuck. You might be experiencing panic, OCD, health or social anxiety, low mood, or burnout. You may be navigating identity questions, life transitions, or the emotional impact of living between cultures. You want relief from constant mental pressure, a deeper understanding of yourself, and a way to feel calmer, more confident, and more connected to who you are.

We all experience losses in life – not just when someone dies but when we lose anything that is important to us: our relationships, our dreams of having a family, our health, our home, our job, our independence, our pets, and our hopes or expectations. Often, we are able to grieve for those losses and adjust but sometimes we are left feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, angry, guilty, ashamed, withdrawn, or numb for many months or even years later. Adjusting to losses in life is not about ‘getting over’ them but about finding ways to live a life that includes them.

Do you identify as autistic, ADHD or neurodivergent? Have you tried to get help before but found that services weren’t accessible to you or tailored to the way your brain works or your priorities? I often work with people who have tried therapy before but found it hasn’t made a meaningful change. Perhaps they keep getting into bad relationships or feel stuck in a cycle of burnout they can’t break. They might be left feeling like they’ve failed at therapy, when, in fact, therapy that has failed them.

Hi, my name is Karen. I gained my qualification in counselling and psychotherapy many years ago in 1997. I was privileged to attend an accredited course at Salford college. I also acquired certificates in sociology, psychology, child psychology, criminology, and hypnotherapy. Alongside the hypnotherapy certificate, I completed workshops in dream therapy, sex therapy, and inner child work. Over the years I have specialised in inner child work, and have witnessed many positive outcomes from using this technique. Since qualifying, I have worked with a diverse range of issues, of which no problem is too big or too small.

I work with couples, and parents who are struggling with the behaviour of their children, particularly aggression or other risky behaviours. I also work with couples who are experiencing significant levels of conflict and harmful or abusive behaviour. Sometimes, my work is with parents who have separated and are trying to work out how to reduce the impact of this separation on their children, or repair or reconstruct relationships that have become strained or distant.
