About me
Hello and warm welcome to Your Storylines Therapy. I am here to listen and support you. Take a look around and see if I am right fit for you.
If you landed on this page, chances are something is feeling heavy. Maybe it's anxiety, constant overthinking, tension at home or work, or just sense that you have lost touch with yourself. Perhaps you're navigating a difficult life transition or self-worth.
You are not alone and you don't have to carry it all by yourself anymore.
Who I Work With
I specialise in supporting adults navigating anxiety, career challenges, complex family dynamics, identity questions and personal growth. Whether you're going through a life transition or feeling emotionally exhausted by your inner world, we will work together to help you feel more grounded, clear, and in control. I am also passionate about supporting and helping narcissistic abuse victims in their recovery.
About Me and How I work
Hi, my name is Karla. I am heart and face behind Your Storylines Therapy. I am fully qualified, warm and open-minded counsellor offering a grounded, non-judgmental space where you can be fully yourself. My approach is integrative and holistic, drawing from person-centred approach, solution focused therapy. This means we don't just explore what's difficult-we also look at what's possible.
Solution Focused Therapy is a powerful option if you looking for practical tools, clarity, and movement forward. It's ideal if you are short on time or just want support that gets to the heart of what's going on-without needing to stay stuck in the past.
I also work holistically, with my background in yoga and mindfulness I can offer body-mind awareness that can be especially helpful when stress, anxiety, or disconnection show up physically as well as emotionally.
How Therapy Can Help
Through our work together, you can begin to:
-Understand and manage anxiety and overthinking
-Build tools to handle life's pressures with more ease
-Feel more confident in your decisions and identity
-Navigate work, family, and relationship stress
-Reconnect with yourself and what matters to you
What to Expect
Therapy with me is down to earth, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. You don't have to have it all figured out-we will go at your pace, with compassion and curiosity. I offer a safe and warm, compassionate space free of judgment. A place to slow down, breathe, and feel truly heard. I understand the courage it takes to reach out, especially if you've always felt the need to stay strong for the others.
I offer sessions and flexible scheduling in ways that work for you. In person therapy, online sessions and walk and talk therapy.
Your Healing Journey Starts Here and Now
No judgment. No expectations. Just acceptance and genuine support.
If something in this speaks to you, trust that. Reach out when you are ready I'd be honoured to walk alongside you.
I am open minded and supportive to individual needs and promoting sense of respect, non judgment and cultural diversity. I am bilingual and offer the therapy both in English and Czech language.
Sessions are 50 min.
You can contact me through email, website and phone.
Take your time and If you are curious about starting therapy, I offer a free initial 15 minute phone call so we can explore how I might support you. You have already taken the first step. I'd be honoured to offer my help and support to you from here.
With warmth,
Karla and Your Storylines Therapy

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
