Meet Karla
Counsellor and Trauma-Informed Specialist
I am Karla Van Pitterson, 47, a professional Middlesex University and BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) trained and registered qualified Counsellor, Psychotherapeutic Practitioner and Trauma-informed Specialist. Alongside Positive Psychology and Mindfulness Coach.
With over 25 years experience working within NHS charities, local authority, youth centres, community hubs, private and corporate settings and 5 years private counselling and in-house therapist.
Born and raised in London, UK, I have travelled and lived across Europe, USA, Africa and the Caribbean. I bring deep cultural sensitivity and awareness, adaptability, emotional intelligence and an inclusive approach to every session. My practice is rooted in respect for the individual, emotional presence, freedom and connection.
Personally, through my many experiences I have learned to trust the rhythm of change and to live a grounded and meaningful life. My purpose is to support people to move more steadily through the difficulties of life, to trust themselves more deeply, and to develop a clearer understanding of the world they live in.
