About Karen
Karen Power is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who draws on seven years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety and depression, and supports those navigating relationship and self-esteem struggles. Karen also helps with neurodivergence-related concerns, grief, trauma and issues around intimacy and parenting.
She trained with a first-class honours BA in Counselling and follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy Ethical Framework. Karen aims to tailor sessions to each person, shaping the work around individual strengths and goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
Background and approach
Her approach is practical and straightforward. Sessions focus on what matters now and on small steps that make a difference. Techniques from client-centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness are drawn on to help people manage symptoms and responses in daily life.
People often come for help with workplace stress, panic and social anxiety, or to cope with life changes such as separation or career shifts. Karen also offers support related to autism, ADHD and issues commonly described by men and women around guilt, control and isolation. She encourages an open, respectful space where clients lead the story and the counsellor acts as guide.
If someone is ready to begin, Karen asks them to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to arrange the first session.

How Karen's approaches translate to remote work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experiences and priorities. It means the counsellor follows the client's lead, listens carefully and helps the person make sense of their situation. This approach supports people struggling with low self-esteem, life changes or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage panic and change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve everyday coping.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and will tailor methods accordingly. This is a collaborative process, so adjustments are made as the sessions progress.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the same therapeutic techniques used in person to remote sessions, helping people access consistent support while juggling everyday commitments.
