All UK & International, Individual and Couples welcome. Sessions: £60 (£55 students and lower incomes). Hi, I'm Karla, 47, a counsellor and trauma-informed psychotherapeutic practitioner, with over 6 years of therapeutic practice and more than 25 years' experience across the NHS, charities, corporate settings, community services, youth work, and private practice. I support people who want real understanding, not judgement or surface-level solutions. I don't just listen, I'm alongside you on your journey. Couples will have the opportunity to speak individually first, not for judgement but to be heard respectively before joint session
Whether you feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, questioning yourself or others, this is your space. Sessions give you the space to explore your past, present, and future. I listen deeply, hold distress with care, help you move forward with greater confidence, and clarity. I can offer suggestions, careers support, strategies, and mindfulness techniques.
Issues: Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Work Stress, Burnout, Family/Friends Conflict, Narcissistic Abuse, Relationships, Confidence, Life Changes, Identity, Bereavement, Abuse, Spirituality, Menopause, Health, Childhood Abuse, Imposter Sydrome, Addiction & More (Do check my Expertise List). I am 2S-LGBTQ+ and Neurodivergent inclusive. Book your session today.
