Karen Batchelor

As a qualified psychodynamic counsellor, I can offer you one to one, open ended counselling ensuring confidentiality at all times.

I would like to offer time for you.  

A safe space for to feel you can share your your thoughts and feelings without judgement.  I am here to listen to any worries, concerns or difficulties that you may be experiencing or perhaps you are struggling to cope with a loss, whether it be a bereavement, a relationship, a job or just that you feel that your life is passing you by and it is not working out how you had hoped.   You may be finding it hard to talk to a loved one or friend as you may worry about upsetting them or perhaps you fear being judged.

Through building a trusted, therapeutic relationship we can work together to explore your life experiences and how they may have affected you.

I am a psychodynamic counsellor but I seek to determine an approach to the work that would suit you and your needs.

I practice from a warm comfortable room in the centre of Hertford with convenient parking nearby. 

Our first session together would last 50 minutes.  This is an opportunity for us to meet, for me to hear about why you are seeking counselling at this time.

This gives us both the chance to think about what help is needed and whether the form of counselling that I can offer you is appropriate to help and support you.
