Counselling for Healing and Life Skills
Does your pain story show itself in your eating disorder, or the critical way you talk to yourself and treat others, or does it show up in issues like anxiety or low self-esteem? You have been wrestling with this for a while and you are here because something in you is saying, "no more." You are tired and done with being stuck in difficult cycles, struggling with emotional distress and patterns that don't work and don't let you go free. You desire to find guidance that helps you remove the blocks and move forward towards healthier self care practices, emotional intelligence, and greater wholeness.
Meet Karen
With a masters degree in Counselling Psychology, I have over twenty-five years of counselling experience in a private practice setting. I specialize in and enjoy working with eating disorders and women's issues.
I am no different than you, I have faced life issues and found healing, so my counselling work is not just textbook but has real life understanding. So much can go into the making of a human life and some of these things can undo us in ways. The undoing can be transformed into a life where we find meaning, growth and fullness.
The Counselling Process
Through a warm and compassionate lens, my goal is to provide a safe place for you to talk, and to partner with you in a way that you feel seen, heard and understood. I will guide you to understand how much sense your actions make. You are more than a diagnosis. You are a human that was hurt in some way and you made your way without the help you needed. As you understand how you came to be blocked, feel powerless to change, or overwhelmed, we can work on steps towards recovery using life skills and healing therapies.
Through our work together, you should experience transformative moments that allow you to begin to move forward, repair your relationship with yourself and others, and learn life skills.
It can be challenging to reach out but also hopeful and empowering. In reaching out, my hope is that you find your way through the struggle, feel supported seen and understood. Today can be a new beginning for you. I invite you to email or call for a 15 min consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.
