About Me

Karen Mettle

Karen’s Therapy Room

I am a qualified Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, registered with the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP).

I am also trained to work within other specialities like Mentalized-Based Training (MBT), Dialectic-Based Training (DBT), Compassion Focus Therapy (CFT), working with Families with Mental Health.

The type of therapy offered is open ended, on a one-to-one basis. Sessions are arranged as per your need, generally once per week but more if needed.

I try to find the best way to provide therapy
for you and offer a range of face to face and on-line sessions.

I have over 25 years of experience as a nurse within the NHS, private and voluntary sectors. I am a registered Mental Health Nurse (RMN) (Postgraduate Diploma and Certificate in Perinatal Mental Health). I continue to work in the NHS in the specialized field of Perinatal Mental Health and well-being, working with the mother, baby, couples and families. 


I also have a special interest in working with young adults.
