About Canse
Canse Karatas is a counsellor and psychotherapist and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has 12 years of practice supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem issues and anger. She works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English, and she accepts international clients.
Canse uses a blend of relational and psychodynamic thinking alongside client-centred and mindfulness approaches. She aims to help people process difficult experiences so feelings become easier to notice and manage. Sessions focus on breaking problems into smaller steps and finding practical ways to move forward without rush.
Her background includes work in community mental health services, inpatient units and crisis intervention, and experience in a Therapeutic Community setting where dialectical behaviour approaches were used with people diagnosed with personality disorders and dissociative identity issues. She has run mental health awareness events and contributed written pieces about wellbeing.
Canse studied for a BA (Hons) in Psychology with a clinical focus and completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy. She is insured and holds an Enhanced DBS. Her practice draws on attachment-based and trauma-focused ideas as well as creative, humanistic ways of working.
In sessions she supports people dealing with relationship challenges, grief, addictions, eating and intimacy-related concerns, career questions and coping with life changes. She also pays attention to issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, dissociation, guilt and shame, isolation and multicultural concerns.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Canse integrates attachment-based and trauma-focused ideas with client-centred and mindfulness practices. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and helps people notice patterns in closeness, trust and anger. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on processing painful memories and the emotions that come with them, which can reduce reactivity and rumination.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and decide collaboratively which methods to use. That can mean more reflective, insight-based conversation at times, and more practical mindfulness exercises or grounding techniques at others.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break or removing travel time. It can also let people take part when they are in a different country, since international clients are accepted. The focus is on shaping sessions so they suit everyday routines and the practical limits of each person.
