Whist integrating many useful approaches to therapeutic work, such as relational psychodynamic, somatic, and IFS, I work from a black empathic and feminist perspective, which welcomes people of all genders, racial and ethnic identities, and (dis)abilities, recognising that every person's experience must be seen in context of their position in their family, culture, and wider society.
Hi, I'm Karmela, a counsellor and psychotherapist working in N12 9EH, SW1V 3SG, and SW7 4TE and online. As a fully qualified and insured practitioner, I work with you collaboratively, as a team focused on you, where you are the expert on your life and I provide empathy, challenge, insight and practical strategies.

Whether you're looking for more clarity in your life, support with life changes, relationships, managing anxiety or depression, or exploring your identity we can work through it together.

Thank you for stopping by. Reaching out takes courage, especially when what brings us in may only hint at deeper patterns or emotions beneath the surface. Often, we carry unspoken feelings or past experiences that quietly shape how we relate to ourselves and others. In therapy, there’s space to explore these layers with curiosity and care. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready to understand yourself more fully, this could be the start of meaningful change—and you don’t have to do it alone. I invite you to take your time, and when you're ready, we can begin to explore what has bought you to therapy together.

Alongside my experience supporting clients with grief, trauma and self-esteem, being from the French Caribbean and having lived in France and now the UK has deepened my appreciation of identity, belonging and life between cultures.
Are you struggling with grief, trauma, anxiety, low self-esteem, or the lasting impact of difficult experiences? Do you feel stuck, disconnected from yourself, or unsure where you belong?
