Anxiety - Childhood Trauma - Lack of Direction - Guilt - Depression - Abuse - Shame - Conflict - Grief - Emotional Pain - Addictions - Bullying - Peer Pressure - Chronic Illness I’m Karen Lee and I offer a unique therapy experience. It’s my passion and commitment to supporting you in gaining clarity and awareness so that you can make life choices that lead to fulfilment, freedom, and true joy. With over 18 years of experience in working closely with people, as well as my own ongoing professional development, I’ve incorporated some of the most effective tools and modalities into my Gestalt focused therapy. This then allows you to discover your own answers, restoring the power of choice in your life. You’ll be surprised at the results. IICT and AHA member. “After 20 years of seeing counsellors, I have rarely come across a therapist who specialises in such a powerful tool like gestalt. I’ve been seeing Karen for a few months & the results are incredible. I’m experiencing an integration of myself at significant ages with who I am now. That feels very liberating & has created more space emotionally to be able to make healthy choices. As a trauma survivor, gestalt is a highly effective method for creating new brain pathways that are less about reacting from fear & more from calm choosing. Karen is kind & feels things ‘with’ me, which makes it a lot easier to be vulnerable. I highly recommend her as a compassionate counsellor.” Melinda Teacher Illawarra, Australia “Open your thoughts and feelings to Karen and you will reap bountiful rewards of the mind, body, and spirit. While I had some experience with Gestalt going into my therapeutic relationship with Karen, I was surprised by the intense emotional journey that has been my last 6 months. I have experienced accelerated growth/healing as compared to struggling along alone. I found the ethereal nature of the work to be the missing link in the comprehension of my very human condition. I love that my results from these sessions were in direct proportion to my efforts in venerability and honesty. I felt powerful in my sessions, I was doing this! Karen is very good at placing the kudos for the results where they belong, with the client. In my opinion, a very valuable addition to your regimen of self-love and care. This is some deep therapy. I feel fortunate indeed to have had the opportunity to do this work with Karen.” Ben Gippsland, Australia “Recently our teenage son experienced a sudden onset of mental health with panic attacks and anxiety. Our son was driven by fear and thoughts of suicide. A safe place to talk was needed, then we found Karen. After 6 weeks of therapy, we have our son feeling more himself and actively using the coping strategies that Karen provided. For the first time this year, our son is starting to feel safe again. Karen has been a significant part of his recovery.” Mel Illawarra, Australia “Karen finding me was an absolute blessing. I used to go to therapy and was prescribed Zoloft to help with my anxiety but deep down I always knew that I could manage my anxiety without medication just never was given the tools as to how. Karen changed all of that. Gestalt therapy helps me manage my anxiety, has taught me what my needs are, and how to heal. I went from visiting once a week to fortnightly to now once a month. This is the type of therapy you learn and heal from. It has been absolutely life-changing for me and I am so thankful to Karen. People around me like my husband have even noticed a huge difference and are super proud of where I’ve come from to who I am now. It’s been an absolute learning experience and I can’t wait to continue to incorporate my therapy into everyday life and I can happily say that I can be me without having the brain fog of anxiety medication. I’m finally becoming whole.” Jordan Ohio, USA Executive Grievance Analyst Read more
