Karen Mills, BACP

Karen Mills is a registered therapeutic counsellor who offers a calm, supportive environment for teens and adults to explore life’s challenges and begin to make sense of them. She welcomes people who are experiencing anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, overthinking, or a general sense of being stuck, and she provides a space where those concerns can be examined with care and curiosity.

As a practitioner who specialises in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Karen uses evidence-informed techniques to help clients identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that may be contributing to distress. She also works as an integrative counsellor, blending approaches so that each plan reflects the individual needs and goals of the person in therapy. Sessions are shaped around practical tools and coping strategies that are tailored to the client’s situation.

Karen describes her approach as grounded in empathy and respect, with a strong belief in each person’s capacity to grow and heal. She supports clients as they explore their stories, uncover strengths, and build insights that can lead to meaningful change. Her professional standing includes membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which reflects recognised training and ethical commitments in counselling practice.

Whether someone seeks support for a specific issue or simply needs a personal space to talk, Karen offers an approachable, person-centred presence to help take the next steps toward greater understanding and wellbeing.
