Dr Karen Arnold

Do you feel stuck or frustrated in your life? Overwhelmed by feelings of anxiety, self-doubt, or struggling with a relationship? Perhaps you experience episodes of low mood that are affecting you and your family.

It is often hard for others to understand how we experience life, and this can lead to feelings of isolation and despair. The evidence suggests that finding a therapist you feel able to talk to and understood by is key to a successful therapeutic experience. I support my clients to explore their problems and worries in a safe, non-judgmental, and collaborative way, leading to improved mental health and wellbeing.

I work in partnership with you using two different styles of counselling to explore the origins of your issues, and to understand the impact they have on your daily life. Through this exploration we can together find ways of increasing your self-awareness, developing greater inner strength, and furthering your personal growth.

New beginnings start with the first step, and I understand how difficult this can be. I can offer an introductory assessment session in which we can identify your therapeutic goals and develop an agreement of how we will proceed should you decide to continue with therapy.

I am fully qualified to offer integrative therapeutic counselling using person-centred and psychodynamic approaches. I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

I work with individuals of any age, and I have extensive experience of working with children and young people. I also offer couples therapy. 

​I am currently offering in-person sessions from my home, online sessions via Google Meet, walk and talk, and telephone sessions.

Individual £60 per 50 minute session

Couples £80 per 50 minute session
