Karen Aldridge

About me and my therapy practice

My name is Karen Aldridge, and I'm the founder and principal therapist at Time & Space, Longridge. Our aim is to provide our clients with the time and space they need to cope, change, accept and feel. To talk, and really be heard. To express emotion and feelings without fear or worry about acceptance or respect.

I have been a counsellor and mindfulness practitioner for over 20 years, and I believe wholeheartedly in the process. I never stop learning new ways of helping my clients because I know that everyone's needs are different. I will draw upon many different genres of counselling and other therapies to ensure that I provide an experience that works best for you.

I am qualified counsellor, registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), and also have qualifications and experience in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Mindfulness, Hypnotherapy and Reiki
