Kyrena Karmiloff

I have spaces available for both online sessions, and face-to-face at my practice in central Bristol.

I work with clients aged 16+  and reserve a number of low-cost spaces for those experiencing financial hardship. 

Integrative Therapist and Psychosynthesis Counsellor available for online or in-person sessions. Offering a warm, supportive and creative approach to help you to heal and grow.

Hello, I’m Kyrena, a BACP registered therapist and counsellor with many years of experience working with grief, depression, childhood trauma and bereavement. I am passionate about my work and aim to offer a warm and nurturing space where you can safely share all your thoughts, feelings and experiences, and explore what is true for you and what is at odds – in your life, relationships and ways of being in the world – with how you feel inside.

As an integrative therapist with a background in psychology, I draw on a variety of approaches, working creatively to tailor our sessions to your unique needs. Together we will collaborate to explore the roots of your current struggles, identify the patterns that affect your life, and get to know all the parts that make up who you are. I trained in psychosynthesis and start from the premise that everyone has an inner wisdom calling them to personal truth and congruence. I believe that therapy, by providing a safe space in which to experiment with new ways of thinking, feeling and being, can unlock the blocks to this healing energy and awaken its potential.

I’m aware that it’s impossible to know, based on an online profile only, who might be the right fit for your journey, so I offer a free initial 20-minute online session for us to meet each other. It’s an opportunity for you to tell me a bit about yourself, your hopes for therapy and any concerns you might have, and for us both to get an idea of how it would feel to work together. If you’d like to arrange this, or want to know more about my background, qualifications and the way I work, please get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you.

I work in-person and online, mostly in an open-ended way, though I also offer shorter-term counselling for those with limited time or resources who want to focus on a specific issue. I also offer walk-and-talk therapy for those who would feel more comfortable out in the open. 

If you’d like to know more about me and my work, please reach out. 

I offer a free, initial 20-minute session, online or by phone. This is an opportunity for you to tell me a bit about yourself, your hopes for therapy and any concerns you might have, and for us both to get a feel for what it would be like to work together.
