Kari Walters, BACP

Kari Walters is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression and midlife changes. She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence and aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings. Her style is gentle and person-focused, with an emphasis on listening and understanding each person's story.

Kari brings five years of experience working in charity and private practice settings. Her background includes roles with the mental health charity Mind, Cruse Bereavement Care, and Burning Nights CRPS. That work exposed her to grief, chronic illness, trauma, and long-term emotional strain.

In sessions she uses a client-centred approach, helping people find their own solutions through careful listening and reflection. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and move at a pace that feels manageable. Practical coping steps may be suggested alongside space for exploring feelings.

She also supports people dealing with ageing and geriatric concerns, blended family pressures, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, codependency, divorce and separation, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Issues such as hoarding, control struggles, and family of origin problems are within her scope.

Kari works in English and is based in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the BACP, which appears as her listed credential. To start, clients choose the platform's Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How a client-centred approach fits with online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on warm, attentive listening. The therapist creates space for the person to talk about what matters most and supports them to find their own way forward. This approach suits people working through anxiety, relationship worries, low self-esteem and life transitions such as midlife change.

Kari's background in charity work with grief and chronic illness informs her client-centred way of working. In practice this means sessions start by understanding your priorities and pacing the work to how you feel. The therapist and client decide together what works best for each session and review progress as they go.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit conversations into a busy week, avoid travel time, and keep appointments during illness or when mobility is limited. It can also allow shorter check-ins if that suits your schedule or quieter, camera-free calls when that helps you focus.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists will help match the therapeutic approach to your needs, goals and preferences so you can make steady progress at a pace that suits you.
