Karina Angel
Counsellor or psychotherapist (ACA, PACFA or CPCA). Relaxed, professional care that is trauma-informed and person-centred telehealth counselling for autistic adults by an autistic adult.
About
I am a neurodivergent Christian counsellor who integrates lived experience with academic training, working with individuals of all ages and stages of life. I have experience providing counselling for relationship difficulties, behavioural concerns, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, grief and loss. My approach is trauma-informed, person-centred and collaborative, with structured sessions tailored to each individual's needs. I provide relaxed, professional care in an environment where each individual's strengths are recognised and explored, allowing change to begin, continue and be achieved at their own pace and through their own choices. Through this process, resilience is fostered, creating opportunities for a life more closely aligned with their inner hopes, dreams and aspirations.
What a first session looks like
The first session is an opportunity to discover what I am like to work with while I learn your reasons for seeking counselling. We begin collaborating as you share what keeps you awake at night, why you avoid deadlines, changes in your social life, or anything else you choose to discuss. You decide what matters and what you wish to change because I provide relaxed, professional care that respects your autonomy. I conclude with a summary of your life now, your goals, and what to expect in our next session.
