Person centred and trauma informed care online
Karena primarily works from a person centred stance and a trauma informed perspective. A person centred approach focuses on the individual’s priorities, values and strengths, helping people explore their concerns and set goals at their own pace. A trauma informed approach recognises the impact of past harm and emphasises safety, choice and empowerment, which can be especially helpful for people navigating trauma, abuse or high stress situations. In addition, her practice draws on evidence based therapeutic techniques to guide practical skill building and coping strategies for anxiety, depression and life changes.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and she works collaboratively with each client to determine what fits best. That collaboration takes into account the client’s needs, goals and preferences, and may include discussion of other perspectives or input from appropriately qualified or registered professionals where relevant.
Online therapy with Karena is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access support from home, work or on the move, and allow people to continue consistent care even when life feels busy or transitions occur.
