About Karen
BACP counsellor with seven years' experience, based in the United Kingdom. Karen Power helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. She works with issues linked to neurodivergence, including autism and ADHD, and with concerns around relationships, grief and workplace strain.
Karen trained to a first-class BA (Hons) degree in Counselling and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP (Accred). She follows the BACP Ethical Framework in her practice.
Her way of working centres on listening and responding to what each person brings. She treats clients as the experts in their own lives and builds on the strengths they already have. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps alongside space to talk through feelings.
Karen draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and to develop new coping skills. She also uses Mindfulness techniques and Solution-Focused methods for short-term planning and goal-setting.
People contact her about a wide range of concerns, including parenting strain, intimacy and sexual issues, workplace problems, anger, eating and sleeping difficulties, and trauma or abuse. She also records experience with men's and women's mental health topics and compassion fatigue.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-focused. Karen asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire before the first meeting so she can match the session to the person's current needs.

How her therapeutic approaches work in remote sessions
Karen commonly uses Client-Centred Therapy to make space for a person to tell their story and to notice their own resources. That approach is about listening and reflecting so clients can decide what matters most to change.She also applies Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to practise new coping strategies between sessions. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and panic symptoms by breaking problems into manageable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Karen aims to agree with each client which methods to try based on their concerns, goals and preferences. She treats this as a collaborative process and may mix approaches as needs evolve.
Confirm the session formats before booking as the biography does not list explicit formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. If you plan to use remote sessions, check which formats are offered and mention any practical requirements when arranging the first meeting.
