Hello, I'm Donna Karpel, a fully qualified counsellor and psychotherapist supporting adults through life's challenges and whilst I have received training in several different approaches, I work integratively.

Integrative counselling is a combined approach where numerous different approaches are used to cater to the clients needs effectively as every person's experiences and goals are unique.

I understand that taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, so I aim to provide a warm, welcoming and non-judgemental space where you can feel safe to talk openly at your own pace. My role is to listen with compassion, help you make sense of what you're experiencing and support you in finding a way forward.

I work with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress both personal and work related, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, bereavement and loss, anger management, trauma and life transitions. Whether you feel overwhelmed, stuck , or simply looking to understand yourself better, we can work together to help you develop greater resilience, self-awareness and emotional wellbeing.

If you have never experienced counselling before you may not be aware of the positive effect talking to someone who is trained to listen and respond effectively can have. I am committed to supporting you on your journey and be your companion for you to find the best and healthiest version of yourself.
