Karen King

Karen King is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 11 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and motivation. Karen believes clients know their own stories and brings a respectful, collaborative attitude to the first meetings.

Her sessions aim to build on existing strengths. She uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people discover what works for them. Topics often include relationships, coping with life changes, addictions and issues with sleep or eating.

Karen also works with concerns such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, chronic pain and bereavement. She supports people dealing with attachment difficulties, domestic violence, sexual assault and feelings of guilt and shame. Divorce and separation are among the life transitions she helps people process.

Her style is grounded and person-focused. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to follow the client’s lead and on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify achievable next steps. Motivational Interviewing and Trauma-Focused Therapy inform how she approaches change and recovery.

Sessions are practical and paced to the individual. Karen offers a calm space for people to talk through what matters most and to plan manageable steps forward. She aims to make therapy useful from the start.

Approaches that shape online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding what matters to the person and following their pace; it helps when someone needs a listening space and to make sense of difficult feelings. Solution-Focused Therapy aims to identify small, practical steps and build on what already works, which can help with stress, motivation and adjusting after life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs evolve and progress is reviewed collaboratively.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the options available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to keep continuity of care during transitions, helping people maintain momentum while they apply practical steps learned in sessions.
