About

I believe that sometimes life’s challenges can appear overwhelming and trying to make sense of the way forward is just too difficult to contemplate without support. I work with adult, children, young people and families and my aim is to build up a relationship in which you will feel able to talk about what is happening in your life that you’d like to change.

Karen Ranger is an excellent psychologist, and is the reason I would like to follow in the same career once I have completed the IB. Through my time in Years 10 and 11, and the summer in between and summer beyond, she has been there for me continuously, offering a grounded mind and an attentive ear. I would like to add that she has had an overwhelmingly positive impact on my self-confidence and personal value, something I believe is important for all. More...

I’ve recently been seeing Karen for a range of various personal issues I’ve been experiencing and she is absolutely fantastic. I can’t fault her. I always leave her sessions with a clear head and she really has had a huge impact on my mental health. I always look forward to my next session with her. Thank you Karen for helping me believe in myself again. More...

Karen is absolutely brilliant. My daughter had been struggling for years with anger and controlling her emotions. After just 6 sessions, I have my daughter back. The best investment I have ever made. More...

My experience with Karen has been truly life-changing. She creates a safe, supportive space where I always feel heard and understood. Her insight, compassion, and guidance has helped me grow in ways I didn’t think were possible. I’m genuinely grateful for the progress I’ve made and highly recommend her! More...

Karen is amazing and helped me through some very tough times! This was my first therapy experience, and she made me feel so welcomed from the start. She’s easy to talk to and creates a comfortable space to open up and work through things. I always leave feeling heard, supported, and equipped with tools to continue my journey. Highly recommend!

Since having my first meeting with Karen I have absolutely been blown away! What a beautiful, kind, compassionate lady she is. I’ve never felt so comfortable, heard & hopeful with any other therapists and believe me I’ve had loads, her approach to everything is amazing and I am actually excited to see where my future brings me for the first time in over 15 years! I would recommend her to absolutely everyone and I can’t wait to continue working with her to help make me better and I genuinely believe she is the women to help me achieve that! More...

Today I had the pleasure of talking to Karen. Very welcoming. I am very happy with my session. I suffer from BPD and anxiety, but Karen made me feel at ease, I wasn't being judged and made me feel that there are thousands of people struggling and coping with anxiety in the world we live in. Thank you, Karen.

I have been struggling with depression for a long time to the point I once tried to take my life. I have tried different counsellors before and they did not help. The only way forward has helped me greatly with my depression and helped me through the issues that caused my depression The service I have received has been excellent and the only way forward has helped me with my confidence and I am now positive about what the future holds. I am so grateful for the support and help I received. More...
