About me

Counselling Sessions

Karen Botevyle

I am a qualified Counsellor and trained IFS Therapist who is extremely passionate about helping people through difficult times in their life.

I believe that everybody should be given an opportunity to be able to have their voice heard and be able to express how they are feeling without fear of being judged. Therapy should be about you, so I can tailor the sessions to suit you, in a safe and non-judgemental environment, where I will listen and support you through these challenging times.

Most of us will, at some point, experience challenging times and this can leave us feeling overwhelmed and triggered from the experience.

Whether you are struggling with a bereavement, experienced trauma, suffering with depression, anxiety, lost your self-esteem or have any other area's you are finding difficult to deal with. I will be able to help you explore these issues and find a new way forward.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT THERAPIST

Choosing the right therapist is an essential part of therapy and it is important that you find someone you feel comfortable with.

I offer an initial free introductory telephone chat which gives you the opportunity to meet me, talk through any questions you may have and share your expectations.

This session also gives you the opportunity to see whether counselling is right for you and whether I am the right person to support for you.

PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED

I have experience of working with a wide range of issues and I am professionally trained in a variety of counselling theories/therapeutic approaches, including Internal Family Systems via the IFS Institute. This means I can tailor our sessions to your individual needs.

Outside of my private practice I have worked with Anxiety UK, Cruse Bereavement Care and a Rape and Sexual Abuse charity.
