About Kari

Kari Walters works with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, life changes, career concerns and depression. She uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on each client’s experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of practice experience.

Kari has worked in charity and private settings. Her background includes roles at Mind, Cruse Bereavement Care and Burning Nights CRPS. She has supported people facing grief, chronic illness, anxiety and low self-worth.

In sessions she listens closely and reflects what is said. This helps clients notice patterns and understand their feelings. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on what matters most to them.

Her work covers practical day-to-day concerns as well as longer-standing personal issues. That includes caregiver stress, family of origin problems, bereavement-related strain, isolation and difficulties after divorce or separation.

Kari also supports people affected by chronic pain, illness or disability, and those dealing with hoarding, control issues, codependency and dependent personality patterns. She offers space to talk about ageing and geriatric issues, blended family questions and challenges around intellectual disability.

Sessions are conducted in English and she works with UK-based clients. Before booking, clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the platform.

How her person-centred approach works online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens and reflects, helping people make sense of feelings and choices. This approach can help with anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and coping with life changes.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and will work together with the client to choose the most helpful approach. Decisions about focus and pace are made collaboratively.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them here. Online working can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also gives more choice about surroundings and can be useful when managing chronic illness or caring responsibilities. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists generally adapt the practical details to suit each client’s circumstances.
