About Karl

Karl Graham is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience. He holds BACP accreditation and focuses on supporting people through anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. He aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them.

He begins by listening carefully to a person’s story and what they want to change. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each person.

Background and approach

Karl uses practical tools alongside open conversation to help people build coping strategies and clearer thinking. His work draws on trauma-focused therapy and cognitive behavioural techniques to address distressing memories, unhelpful thinking patterns and responses that keep problems going. He also uses client-centred and mindfulness approaches to help people feel more grounded and valued during sessions.

Karl has spent time supporting people with a wide range of concerns, including relationship strain, grief, sleep problems, parenting stress, anger and career difficulties. He also works with addiction, ADHD-related challenges and issues linked to attachment and abandonment. People who choose Karl often want straightforward, practical support and a calm conversational style.

He encourages small, realistic steps and helps clients track progress between sessions. Getting started simply means completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions that fit your schedule.

Ways of working Karl names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Karl commonly uses trauma-focused therapy to help people process distressing memories and reduce the ways those memories affect daily life. Sessions focus on pacing, grounding and practical steps to manage triggers rather than reliving trauma in an unstructured way.

He also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to identify thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and to try out different responses. CBT work online often involves setting small experiments and using short exercises between sessions to track progress.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. He will talk through options and tailor methods based on a person’s goals, needs and preferences. Choices can be adjusted over time as progress is reviewed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering different practical benefits. Video is useful when visual contact helps the conversation. Phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit easily into a work break. Live chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins, quick reflections or when writing helps to clarify thoughts.

These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around daily life while keeping the therapeutic work focused on what a person wants to change.
