Karen has worked with a diverse range of individuals and couples across a variety of sectors; the health service, universities, the workplace, charities and the private sector. She recognises how hard it can be to reach out for support and aims to provide a safe, warm and friendly place for people to explore things further.

Research has shown that the biggest factor for successful therapy does not lie in the type of therapy used, but in the therapeutic relationship between patient and therapist. Even though I am psychodynamically trained, I integrate other forms of therapy to best meet the individual needs of every patient and their unique circumstances. This two-way dynamic enables and promotes growth within the patient as well as the therapist, thus strengthening the relationship and possible outcomes of the therapeutic process.
