Kara Rosenberg

Kara Rosenberg is a trainee counsellor working currently completing an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling at The Awareness Centre alongside an MSc in Psychology and working at the NHS Talking Therapies in Sutton. She is a registered student member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the British Psychological Society (BPS). Kara is developing her clinical experience through her work with clients presenting with a range of emotional and psychological difficulties. Her integrative training allows her to draw from different therapeutic approaches, with particular influences from Person-Centred and Gestalt modalities, enabling her to adapt her way of working to the unique needs and goals of each client.

Kara offers a warm, empathetic, and collaborative therapeutic space where clients can feel accepted, supported, and able to explore their thoughts and feelings openly. She believes that the quality and authenticity of the therapeutic relationship are central to the counselling process and strives to create an environment built on trust, respect, and understanding. Kara works in a way that encourages self-exploration, personal growth, and healing, recognising that each client brings their own experiences, strengths, and challenges to therapy. Through an integrative approach, she supports clients in developing greater self-awareness, exploring patterns that may be impacting their wellbeing, and finding more helpful ways of relating to themselves and others. Kara also offers therapy in French and Italian.

Before beginning her counselling training, Kara built an international career as a management consultant in the financial services sector, working across Europe, the UK, and the US. This experience provided her with valuable insight into managing stress, navigating life transitions, and working with people from diverse cultural backgrounds, all of which continue to inform her therapeutic practice. Kara originally studied Business Administration, completing both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees, before transitioning towards counselling and psychology. She also volunteered as a counsellor in Brixton Prison, where she supported individuals experiencing a range of mental health challenges and strengthened her commitment to therapeutic work. Kara has a particular interest in supporting clients experiencing anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. She is passionate about working alongside clients as they develop a deeper understanding of themselves, build confidence, and move towards greater fulfilment in their lives.
