Karen is amazing! So warm and nurturing. She has a very calming, soft spoken voice that will put you at ease within minutes. I was suffering from ptsd and she used a combination of brain training techniques, hypnotherapy and meditation to help me to dispel the traumatic images. She is also not the type of therapist who tells you that you need to keep coming back for ever. She told me on our first appointment that 4 sessions would be enough but she still double checked at the end of each session that I wanted to return the fo... read more

Unfortunately not great experience with Karen. Even though she was friendly, she arrived late and totally flustered to 2 of our sessions. Did EMDR with her and when I got scared and struggled she seemed helpless and didn't quite know how to help me. This is over 2 years ago now and only now that I'm seeing someone who is doing EMDR in a more professional and controlled way, I understand how badly I was let down here. Please take better care of your future patients 🙏🏼

The best thing I ever did was take the first step in seeking help for many years of crippling anxiety related to past trauma. Karen has provided me with the tools and resources to better understand and deal with anxiety, all within a safe, caring, and compassionate environment. I highly recommend Karen and cannot thank her enough for where I am today.

I went to see Karen for help with anxiety PTSD from a road rage incident that left me on edge and the year before we had come through the fires. I had not realized how affected I had been until I had the treatment. Karen is such a well rounded, approachable and friendly person it was easy to relax into the treatment. I highly recommend Karen, for her treatments have made an enormous impact on my life and I feel like a different person minus that level o anxiety i carried around with me. BecS

I originally went to Karen to seek help with my fear of heights and was amazed that with just one session I was able to climb the DNA tower at Kings Park without fear. I have recently been back for help to overcome a serious insomnia problem including reliance on sleeping tables, without which I simply couldn't sleep. Three sessions with Karen, one week apart and for the first time in about 15 years I'm no longer using sleeping tablets. Karen has a way of making me feel completely safe and relaxed and makes the process of de... read more
