About Karen Whitfield
She specialises in Narrative Therapy, a respectful, non-blaming approach that positions people as the experts in their own lives. This model separates problems from the person and assumes individuals already possess many of the skills, values, commitments and abilities needed to reduce the influence of difficulties. Karen draws on this perspective when supporting people through stress, anxiety, addictions, career difficulties, grief and loss, depression and other life changes.
In sessions Karen aims to foster an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be explored safely. Her practice emphasises collaboration and empowerment, helping clients identify strengths and practical steps for coping and forward movement.
