Counselling for Healing and Life Skills
What if you could live free from an eating disorder, or a strong inner critic?
Are you ready to manage your stress better or treat yourself more kindly?
What if you could learn to reconnect with yourself or even love yourself?
Meet Karen
With a masters degree in Counselling Psychology, I have over twenty years of enjoyable counselling experience in a private practice setting. I specialize in and enjoy working with individual issues and eating disorders.
I am no different than you, I have faced many life issues and found healing, so my counselling work is not just text-book, but has real life understanding. There are few things I enjoy more than sitting with another person and talking with them about their life. People are fascinating to me. So much can go into the making of a life. Some of these things can undo us in ways. But these things can also be turned around to make our lives into something profoundly more than they could have been had we not walked down that painful pathway and found new meaning and healing.
The Counselling Process
It can feel intimidating to seek the help of a counsellor, but when you show up you will find a relaxed atmosphere, a place to freely talk, and new possibilities for your life. I will partner with you to establish a safe place for you to talk where you can tell your story. This will help me know what you want to work on. I can then assist you to better understand what is going on, which can reduce distress, and you can begin to take some steps towards recovery. As we continue, we will look deeper into the problem to see how it affects your thoughts, emotions and behaviours and work to bring about a positive change. Through our work together, you should be able to sort out what is happening in your life, discover how it relates to your past experience, learn new skills, and find healing.
I have helped many people achieve this for over 20 years of counselling in a private practice setting. Today can be a new beginning for you.

One of the greatest privileges I've found in being a therapist is when women tell me their story, I get to see who they really are, and I marvel every time at how they are uniquely made, and I begin to wonder what could happen if they let other's see this, and even more, what will happen when they too see it?
Counselling can be an empowering journey of discovery and healing that will help you create the life and circumstances that bring meaning, joy, and value to your life.
Call now for your complimentary 20 minute consultation. I look forward to hearing from you!
Warmly, Karen
