About Karen Thomas Change Your Life
Karen Thomas Change Your Life is a mental health and therapy practice led by Karen Thomas, a fully qualified NLP Master Practitioner, Certified Havening Practitioner, Psychotherapist, and Hypnotherapist. With a breadth of qualifications spanning several complementary disciplines, Karen brings a multi-layered approach to supporting clients who want to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. She describes herself as a mind coach and creator of the Change Your Life programme, working with clients through hypnotherapy, NLP, and Havening.
At the heart of Karen's practice is hypnotherapy, which works on the subconscious mind to help clients feel relaxed, calm, and ready to bring about the positive changes they are seeking. This is complemented by Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), a technique Karen holds at Master Practitioner level, which focuses on understanding and reshaping the patterns of thought and behaviour that can hold people back. Together, these approaches form a powerful foundation for coaching and therapeutic work aimed at shifting deeply ingrained habits, beliefs, and responses.
Karen is also a Certified Havening Practitioner, offering Havening Techniques as a distinct strand of her work. Havening is a gentle yet powerful psychosensory method developed to help release encoded traumatic memories and create a sense of safety within a therapeutic setting. This makes it particularly well suited to clients working through trauma, anxiety, phobias, or other conditions that are actively limiting their day-to-day lives. Alongside Havening, Karen's practice encompasses psychotherapy and trauma therapy, providing a structured space for clients dealing with diagnosed conditions, difficult life experiences, or persistent emotional challenges.
Life coaching is another dimension of what Karen offers, supporting clients who may not be seeking clinical therapy but who want focused, purposeful guidance to move forward — whether that means building confidence, navigating change, or breaking through the mental barriers that are preventing progress. Karen holds accreditation with professional bodies, reflecting her commitment to practising to a recognised standard across her varied disciplines.
Karen Thomas Change Your Life is well suited to anyone looking for an integrative, evidence-informed approach to mental and emotional wellbeing — whether they are working through trauma and anxiety, seeking to overcome phobias, or simply ready to make a significant shift in how they think, feel, and live.
