Kari Walters helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious or depressed. She supports those struggling with relationships, low self‑esteem, career worries and coping with life changes. Kari also works with concerns such as chronic illness, caregiver stress, isolation and family of origin problems.

Kari is a counsellor with five years' experience. She has worked in charity and personal settings, including with the mental health charity Mind, Cruse Bereavement Care and Burning Nights CRPS.

Background and approach

Her professional credential is BACP, which she holds as part of her practice in the United Kingdom. Her style is warm and straightforward. Kari offers a calm, non‑judgemental space where people can talk at their own pace.

She listens first, and follows each person's lead rather than imposing solutions. Kari uses a client‑centred approach. That means she focuses on the person's experience and on building a trusting relationship.

Sessions are aimed at helping people make sense of what they are going through and find workable ways to move forward. Practical matters are discussed plainly. People can choose from video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text‑based messaging.

Kari explains options and helps people pick the format that fits their life and needs. Kari aims to help people feel heard and understood, and to support steady, realistic steps toward change. She encourages small, manageable goals and checks in on progress as therapy continues.

Client‑centred care online

Kari mainly uses a client‑centred approach, which focuses on listening, empathy and building trust. The aim is to follow each person's experience and help them feel heard so they can explore feelings and choices. This approach suits issues such as anxiety, low self‑esteem, relationship concerns and coping with life changes.

Finding the right way of working is a shared process. Kari will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they will decide how to proceed. She adapts the pace and focus as therapy unfolds, so the approach can shift if something else suits better.

Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging to make therapy fit around life. Video calls are useful for a close, face‑to‑face feel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging allow short check‑ins and flexible contact between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to schedule sessions around work, caregiving or mobility challenges and help maintain continuity of support.
