About Karen
Karen Devlin is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She works with clients who are managing life changes, relationship strain, trauma and sleeping difficulties. Karen aims to make the first step easier by offering calm, non-judgemental support and practical ways to move forward.
She creates a welcoming space where people can talk about difficult feelings. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and on small, manageable steps.
Background and approach
Karen listens, reflects, and helps people notice patterns that keep problems stuck. Her practice draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood, motivation and coping. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused when that suits the person, and more exploratory when people need to understand deeper patterns.
Karen holds membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has four years of professional experience working with the concerns listed above across different settings. Work is offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, someone completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to the therapist's availability. People reach out for a range of reasons, from coping with bereavement to finding better sleep routines.
Karen aims to help people build clearer choices and more manageable day-to-day routines.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. If one way of working doesn’t help, adjustments are made so sessions remain useful and focused on progress.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow a face-to-face feel while fitting into a busy day, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care and to fit therapy around work and family commitments.
