Hello and welcome, my name is Karen. If you are reading this now, then I imagine that you are searching for someone to support you through whatever difficulties or emotional challenges you may be facing. I am an empathic, compassionate Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and Reiki Practitioner, which means I work holistically. I offer a warm and safe space for people to be heard, understood and their emotional needs met and explored free of fear and judgement. I have extensive experience working with grief, suicidal thoughts, low mood and many anxiety conditions.
With a background in the corporate world and personal experience of the complexities of family life, I am well versed in just how challenging life can be. I take a person-centred approach, and combine the science and evidence of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with the healing energy of Reiki to create a holistic therapeutic experience for you.
I appreciate taking the first steps toward therapy can be so difficult, and if this resonates with you, then please feel free to drop me an email to ask any questions you may have about how we may work together therapeutically. Alternatively, I am happy to offer you a free 15 minute online video chat, to see if you think I may be the right fit for you.

As a Reiki practitioner and qualified CBT therapist, I am passionate about combining the modalities together as I have witnessed first hand the healing they can offer. However, all therapy is as individual as the person seeking it and I empower clients to ensure they have ownership of the therapy.

I work with clients who may be experiencing difficulties with low mood or anxiety related to grief or bereavement. I offer a bespoke combination of CBT and Reiki, (the Reiki is entirely optional). During our early sessions, we will take a deep dive into the issues you are struggling with, and always with compassion and autonomy, work together to develop and execute a treatment plan.

I often use and combine Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Reiki together. During your first session, we will explore what has brought you into therapy, and discuss and agree upon a treatment plan. In CBT we examine the impact your thoughts have on your emotions and behaviours and how you can learn to re-frame thoughts and situations. Reiki offers deep relaxation and healing.
