Helping transform life's difficulties

Thank you for visiting Karl Ayling Counselling Psychology Therapy.

Counselling and Therapy in a safe, comfortable and private setting

I am a Counselling Psychology Therapist based in Guildford, Surrey offering in person counselling to clients in the surrounding areas of Aldershot, Woking, Dorking and Leatherhead. I also reach clients across the UK with online counselling sessions.

The wide ranging diagnosis of aspects of neuro diversity is helping to make the population more aware of the difficulties that people grapple with. Becoming more sensitive and incorporating personal development into practical wisdom can be a time consuming process that requires persistence and years of focused dedication..


The impact that counselling can have is massive. For adults over eighteen years, I can provide an indicative Autism, ASD or ADHD test. Please ask for details.

In a recent article, Psychology Today reported that better help is available for in-person counselling when compared to online. In essence, the emotional experience is very different, from in-person counselling sessions offering the counsellor access to unspoken feelings, visual cues and tactile experiences. In-person benefits include access to non-verbal communication (over 90% of ALL communication is non-verbal) and a more intimate personal relationship.

There are quiet areas for us to work and on a confidential and ethical basis. I have two chocolate Labrador crosses for pet work / family therapy or walk & talk.


I work with anyone with a faith and those with no faith.

My work in-person or online, includes neuro-diversity, autism (A.S.D) ADHD, gambling and gaming addiction, music therapy, film, survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault and addiction, depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, trauma, fetal loss, grief and bereavement. An initial assessment is undertaken to help us to identify and to prioritise areas of work.

From personal experience, spoken therapy is definitely part of the road to recovery and counselling alongside personal development has greatly enhanced life and coping with struggles and challenges.
