Hypnotherapy & Health Coaching

“I first came to Karen feeling very unmotivated and demoralized about my health situation. I had been in menopause for a while and was suffering from its effects: my sleep was affected, I felt fat and bloated all the time, and I couldn’t seem to lose weight no matter what I did. Karen has been a catalyst for restarting my health journey.

What sets Karen apart is her big-picture perspective. I used to view my health only from a physical and emotional standpoint, but Karen helped me consider all the elements in my life. That was a game-changer, and now I feel much better about my body. My eczema even cleared up without conventional medical help.

Karen’s health coaching style puts me at the center. She offers guidance in a supportive, non-intrusive way. Thank you, lovely Karen, for all that you do in helping others view their health from a holistic perspective!” - Tonya

“Phew! I am in awe by what I have been able to accomplish in just three months. Within such a short time, my life and abundance accelerated so rapidly. Without a doubt, my success was attributed to my 1:1 health coaching sessions with Karen.

If you are looking to be witnessed and guided toward achieving your goals, look no further than Karen. Her approach to health coaching is unlike a therapist or doctor, but rather, she uses her wisdom and patience to help you realize your truth. Karen always offered her utmost attention and compassion during our sessions which left me rejuvenated and inspired for the week ahead.

The opportunity to be witnessed as I am by Karen has propelled me toward personal growth and my career endeavors. Karen assisted me in releasing my outdated limiting beliefs and finally trust my intuition. In only three months, I earned a promotion at work (plus two pay raises), completed several incomplete projects, practiced speaking my truth and set boundaries in my personal life, identify dis-ease within my body, began rewriting my future, and finally believing that I am worthy of my dream life.

If you are searching for a sign, this is it. Allow Karen’s light to guide and empower you toward achieving the life of your dreams as she has done for me.” – Emily

“Just want to say a huge thank you to Karen for being such an inspiration and empowerment to me. In the 3 months I spent with her, I enjoyed all the work we did. There were tears, laughter and many revelations. Through her Coaching, we worked out practical, logical, relatable steps and affirmations to work towards my goals. Through her Hypnotherapy sessions, I was able to enter my subconscious which made me realized what was causing my anxiety, limiting habits and beliefs. Through her Reiki sessions, I felt released, energised and empowered. It's been 2 months since I last saw her, the effects of the work with her are long lasting and impactful - definitely life changing. If you're reading this, you're meant to work with Karen :) Her grace, love, wisdom, kindness, guidance & support is contagious - to being a happier, healthier self through a practical lens, and being your truth.

Thank you Karen for touching me so deeply, and for planting seeds in my heart. Like the rays of the sun, through you, the power of my heart is penetrating the hearts of those around me in the quest of being the example, the change, a beacon of kindness, understanding, and goodness I wish to see more of.” - Francesca

“I have had the privilege to enjoy both Reiki and Hypnotherapy sessions with Karen during the last year.

Karen’s Reiki always left me feeling deeply relaxed, light-hearted and wonderfully refreshed. The hour-long sessions felt like minutes but the positive effect lasted for days.

The Hypnotherapy sessions were meticulously prepared with Karen guiding my thoughts ever so gently to focal points of problem areas that I wanted to address. In each session I gained specific insights in the root causes of repetitive patterns and behaviours, both in my professional life as well as in the realm of my family of origin. I left feeling centered, well prepared and equipped with a sustainable confidence to maintain myself in upcoming conflicts and confrontations.

Karen’s approach to combining sessions of Reiki and Hypnotherapy resulted in an exquisite fortification of the results of each form of therapy.” – R.W. Puett

“Wanted to thank you for helping me to gain back control over my fear of flying and confined spaces. In less than 8 weeks I have flown 8 times, 4 flights long haul, was relaxed enough to watch 3 films all the way through, something I have never done before. I now feel even in moments of anxiety that I have techniques in place to help me cope and work through my feelings.  This opens up a whole new world, I am planning to fly from Singapore to England on my own, not something I would have contemplated before your hypnotherapy sessions. Thanks again” – Nicci

“As a smoker of 22 years, I never imagined it would be so easy to stop. Karen’s suggestions are really powerful, after 2 sessions I stopped smoking and have never looked back. I am now a happy and healthy non smoker. I would recommend Karen to anyone wanting to give up.” – Caroline

“I did a past life regression with Karen and wanted to explore a particular issue I was struggling with. I found this session very insightful not only because I was able to see and experience a vivid past life that helped to answer my questions, but also Karen’s skill as a hypnotherapist helped me to resolve at a deeper level through other techniques she used. She gently guided me through the experience and it was a very profound session. Highly recommended!” – Elaine

”I met with Karen for the first time, in May 2013, seeking help with quitting smoking. I had never done hypnotherapy, did not know what to expect but was determined to quit smoking. After the first session, I was amazed at how much Karen had brought me to see about myself and where I wanted to be in the next year, 3 years and 5 years. She thought I did not need a second session but I did not trust myself nor the effectiveness of her work/methods to quit after just one session. I booked a second session and left with the pack of cigarettes in my hands.

In my next session, I had not touched a cigarette for a week and used the session to work on other topics and came back for a few more. I am happy to report that I have not touched a cigarette since. I tried to draw on one once a few months after I quit just to see how I felt about it, and found it absolutely disgusting.

Retrieving my health and saving myself from years of serious chronic disease battles, after just two hours of therapy, is an unmatched ROI. Karen is a very skilled and compassionate therapist. I am grateful I met her and grateful for her work and dedication.” - Hasnaa

“You helped me so much. I enjoy diving now and only sometimes get a bit of anticipatory anxiety. Thank you.” – Gwyneth

“I knew there were certain emotional blockages that were not allowing me to experience life to its full potential. Those blockages were primarily linked to family and professional environments. That’s when I reached out to Karen and experienced her Hypnotherapy sessions.

Each session was very well prepared and guided by Karen. It was really fascinating how she could guide my thoughts and bring me exactly in front of the event / emotion from the past that was the root cause of my emotional blockages. It was so vivid as if you are experiencing that emotion again. In each of the sessions there was such a high clarity and conviction in what I needed to do going forward and eventually I got answers to all of my questions. It wouldn’t be exaggerated if I say this was a life changing experience for me, especially since I tried some other methods before.

On top of that, the space Karen provides is always full of warmth and acceptance, which is extremely important when going through this kind of experience. I would highly recommend Karen for hypnotherapy sessions.” – Marko

Reiki

“Reiki helped me a lot during an important transition period for me as a mother, the departure of my first child who is living now on the other side of the globe for his university student’s life… and to handle stress from the news around the world too. I practice every day since the Reiki 1 workshop conducted by Karen, feeling so grateful to be able to connect with this beautiful loving and healing energy.

I feel that I am a different person after 3 months of practice already (less worried, more joy and motivation, feeling a real connection to the present but also to others and everything around me) and it is also so valuable and empowering to be able to help our loved ones too, family and friends. Once I will gain more knowledge and practice, I wish I will be able to share with more people ... Giving after receiving already so much.

I am very grateful I did the Reiki 1 workshop with you Karen and I am looking forward to continuing this journey with you as your student. You have created a safe space for all of us and you share your knowledge of this beautiful energy and tool with so much authenticity, kindness and passion. Thank you very much Karen.” - Muriel

“I have just finished Karen’s Reiki 1 class and I can’t recommend enough this transformative course. In just three days, I gained such amazing, empowering tools for my personal growth and health as well as for the people around me. Karen is a wonderful teacher, she made this new world simple and accessible, created a lovely sense of community between the participants and opened many doors to go beyond what we learned during those few days.

Thank you so much Karen, I look forward to coming back for level 2, and continue to explore with you!” – Lena

“I studied with Karen for my first module in Reiki, it was a 3 days course at the Reiki Centre while I was living in Singapore back in the summer 2014. I truly loved every minute of the course, the environment was peaceful and positive and the people taking the course were coming from different backgrounds and countries, which made it even more interesting.

Karen is a great teacher, she’s patient and graceful and will provide you all you need to know to start your Reiki journey, as well as sharing a lot of her personal experiences with working personally and professionally as a Reiki Practitioner  and all the tools you need. I highly suggest studying with her or trying out her Reiki services!” – Alessia / http://www.followyourinnerlight.com/

“I attended Karen’s Reiki 1 Course as I had been interested in Reiki for quite some time and wanted to progress my journey.  I had been along to Karen’s Reiki Share sessions in Dempsey on a number of occasions and loved her gentle energy, her clear and enlightening description of Reiki, and felt very safe in her hands.  The Reiki 1 course gave us plenty of time to practice on each other, and the training manual along with Karen’s expert guidance was a wonderful experience. After the course I have practiced Reiki regularly and feel confident enough to consider taking Karen’s Reiki 2 course later in the year.”  –  Emma

“I attended Karen Taylor’s Reiki Level 2 lesson during the period of 16-18 September 2015, and have since benefited from her sharing and guidance. Like her image, she is a very patient and open teacher to us as students. She demonstrated openness, in terms of sharing her personal experience with the knowledge and application equipped, and had been very patient with us before, during and after the lessons. She even extended her help to us if we have any query after the lesson had completed.

In addition, she also facilitated well for the students to share their hands on experiences, which fostered support, care and warmth during that period. For those who want to find out more about Reiki and also how it helps in stress management, I would recommend Karen to you as a teacher whom you can look for!”  –  CW

“I had such a wonderful experience attending the 3 day Reiki 1 workshop with Karen. It was a really nice welcoming and healing environment. Karen herself is a really great facilitator. Everything was very well organised, materials were detailed and easy to consume and Karen’s sessions were really easy to understand. Overall at any point it was really easy to follow what topic we are covering and why. I would strongly recommend Karen for others who would like to attend a Reiki 1 course.”  –  Marko

“I can’t thank you enough Karen for transmitting so much light, wisdom and enlightenment through our Reiki I workshop. Destiny brought me into this path and I’m fully enjoying it, feeling blissful and connected with everything and everyone around me, I wish I didn’t have to wait 43 years to discover it!

Truly grateful to be one of your students and for receiving the attunements from you. You mentioned in our booklet that Reiki is a way to make the world a better and more loving place and I can feel part of that already, I can’t wait to learn more to also help others.”  –  Mónica Portillo

Yoga

“I have been doing yoga for more than 10 years and have recently joined Karen’s yoga classes, which I am loving.  Her classes have a good balance and variety of flow and holding of poses, breathing and meditation.  Karen’s teaching style is calm and warm hearted, she obviously has a true love of yoga which she inspires in her students.  I leave each class feeling happy, energised and ready to conquer any challenge the day throws at me.” – Kerrie

“Karen creates a beautiful welcoming space that puts you immediately at ease. Her class is great for all levels including beginners and she gives you lots of options so that the challenge increases as you progress. Her meditations are a real highlight for me too. I always leave feeling balanced, energised and positive. Thanks so much Karen.” – Julie Ann

“It’s been some years since I have practiced yoga regularly but it has always been an activity I have enjoyed, both physically and mentally. I was a little daunted about starting yoga again after recent knee surgery but I am so pleased I have. For me yoga is about building my physical strength and calming a hectic mind but at the same time providing a gentle reminder that as humans we all have our strengths and weaknesses and that rather than compare ourselves to others we should celebrate each other strengths whilst supporting weaknesses, be it our own or others.

I have known Karen for 11 years and was delighted, but not surprised, when she embarked on a journey to become a yoga instructor. Our first class included 3 people with various injuries including recent knee surgery, back problems and a neck problem. Throughout she ensured we were all able to participate in the class whilst taking into consideration our physical restrictions and providing alternative approaches/movements. Her teaching style is warm and open, her instructions clear and precise and she manages to invoke a feeling of calmness into each of the classes I have attended.” – Clare

“I was a reluctant ‘other half’ to Yoga. Knowing that I was very inflexible after years of playing sports and not stretching properly. After the first 6 weeks or so though I started to see progress, and found that the Yoga really helped to unwind in the evenings, helping me to sleep better. It has improved my core strength and surprisingly I even find the “Oming” quite interesting how you can feel the frequency through your whole body. The most practical tip that Karen has taught me is the breathing techniques, which I use almost daily. I never noticed how shallow you breathe when the body is under stress, and simply taking a few minutes of deep breathing can reset the whole day. Karen has been a great teacher (very patient) and it has been lovely to do something as a whole family which benefits us all.” – Ian

Intuition Workshop

“I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from this workshop and was thrilled as to how much I got out of it.  Karen, in her very calm and confident way, guided us into a beautiful space in our minds and allowed us to open a part of ourselves that many don’t have a chance to access, our intuition.  The ‘workshop’ that one creates is an absolute gem and gives you a peace of mind like I have very seldom experienced.  Thank you Karen and I would highly recommend anybody to do this workshop!– JKW

“The workshop with Karen was just what I needed.  It helped me look into myself and strengthen my connection to my intuition.  I would recommend this workshop for both beginners and people who have been spiritually working on themselves for a long time.  Karen was able to guide the group well and we all shared openly our outcomes.  I particularly liked Karen’s attitude that there was no right or wrong way for us to improve, she allowed us all to take the journey that was right for us. Thanks again Karen.” – Marie

“The intuition workshop was very relaxing – perfect after a busy morning at work, I found the whole process both interesting and enjoyable.

This was a new experience for me, going into my imagination and giving the time to see what is there! I will certainly continue to give the time to develop and explore this technique as a way of helping me gain clarity in my thinking with regard to day to day life and also as an additional tool for relaxation and stress relief. Thank you Karen, a very enjoyable and enlightening session.” – Shona

“Karen’s intuition Workshop has been a bit of a revolution in my life. I greatly appreciate being given this tool, which I can use in my daily routine so that I can deal better with what comes up – and also more fully enjoy what wonderful things come my way. I am now more aware of my own creative powers in bringing what I need in my life towards me. Thank you Karen!” – Kasia
