Karina Davis

I am available week days (except Thursdays) from 8am - 6pm for online sessions

Are you hoping for change?

Do worries about relationships or work keep you up at night? If pretending to be happy feels exhausting and saying 'no' seems impossible, you’re not alone. It’s normal to feel overwhelmed by pressure to please.

How can I help

Starting counselling may seem daunting, but it’s a supportive space to explore yourself and overcome what holds you back. Therapy helps you address obstacles and discover new ways to respond to challenges, so you can find relief and moments of joy even in tough times.

What are my services?

I specialise in helping individuals and couples who have trouble expressing their needs and setting boundaries. Together, we’ll work towards building a more fulfilling life that prioritises your wellbeing.

• Relationship challenges
• People pleasing
• Trouble setting boundaries

To begin, simply fill out the contact form to express your interest. Once submitted, you will be able to book a complimentary fifteen-minute phone consultation. This initial conversation is designed to help you decide whether my approach is right for you, with no obligation to continue.

My approach

I am an Integrative counsellor, and my approach draws primarily from psychodynamic and person-centred therapy, tailored to your individual needs. Sessions typically range from short-term (6-12 sessions) to longer-term work depending on your needs. We'll review our progress regularly to ensure therapy remains helpful.

I provide online counselling services. Sessions are scheduled for 50 minutes on a weekly basis, offering the consistency essential for effective therapeutic progress.

My background

Life experience has shaped me. Personal counselling helped me find my voice, prioritise wellbeing, and set boundaries, leading to more genuine and fulfilling relationships.

With over twenty years of experience in the voluntary and education sector working with marginalised groups. I have supported people who struggle to put their own needs first because of adverse childhood and life experiences,

I have helped individuals who find it difficult to express themselves, set boundaries, and take time for self-care often putting others' needs above their own. I understand from personal experience how challenging this can be, but I also know the profound difference that a safe, supportive space to talk can make. My background means I genuinely appreciate your struggles and am well-equipped to help you discover your authentic self and live a life that honours your own needs and aspirations.

I use a simple contract that outlines how I work, confidentiality, and my cancellation policy. Before our first session, I’ll email it to you. I collect personal details to keep on record and require an emergency contact, both of which need to be submitted prior to the first session.

During our first initial phone call, we will start to explore what’s brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping to achieve, and address any questions you might have about the therapy I offer. There’s no obligation tied to the initial meeting, it’s simply an opportunity to see if we’re a good fit to work together. If you decide to proceed, I will schedule your first appointment, which includes an assessment.

Free initial chat: I offer a free 15-minute telephone appointment.

If you choose to move forward, counselling sessions are held weekly. 

Cost: Each session is priced at £60.
