About Karen
Karen Power is a counsellor with seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in mood, or coping with big life changes. She also supports concerns around relationships, self-esteem, grief and trauma, and issues linked to neurodivergence such as autism and ADHD.
Karen trained to a first class honours BA in Counselling and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Background and approach
She sees each person as the expert on their own life and builds sessions around individual strengths and goals. That practical focus helps clients take small steps that make daily life feel more manageable. Her way of working draws on client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness techniques and solution-focused work.
In a session she will listen, reflect what matters to you, and try out practical strategies together. The aim is to find approaches that fit your situation and your pace. Karen says starting therapy can take courage and she offers a calm, straightforward space to begin.
She tailors the pace and techniques to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. If you want clear, compassionate support while you make changes, she may be a good match. If you decide to proceed, the process begins by using the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire.
Scheduling is then arranged according to therapist availability.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It uses practical techniques to test unhelpful thinking and try small behaviour changes that can ease anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention exercises to reduce reactivity and to notice thoughts without acting on them, which can help with stress and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will work with you to decide which methods suit your needs, goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can adjust over time as you try different strategies.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets you use practical tools together during sessions, such as guided breathing, worksheets and planning tasks, so the same therapeutic approaches can be delivered in ways that suit everyday life.
