Karen Woodley
Relational counsellorAbout Me
I am very professional and provide the safety and confidentiality needed in a warm, open space in my home, where my practice room is in a separate part of the house.
Counselling has enabled me to reach those people for whom movement feels too exposing, and for shy, introverted people, the person-to-person relationship is a lifesaver! My experience has been with women who have suffered and dare to take that first step in listening to their hearts to get help. Women who have experienced birth traumas have been able to heal them. Women who have experienced abuse and low self-esteem find it challenging to think of themselves as important and to listen, hear and understand their feelings and emotions because they have been discounted since childhood.
I began training in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy during the lockdown and am now in my clinical years of working and am delighted to be able to offer this. My approach is relational, and I work with women and with men.
