About me
Sometimes it's hard to know where to start, or even quite how to describe what's been weighing on you. That's completely normal — and it's exactly where counselling begins.
I'm Caroline, an integrative counsellor based in Horsham, working in person and online across the UK. Integrative means I don't apply a fixed method to every person — I draw on a range of approaches and adapt how I work to suit you, your pace, and what you actually need. As things shift and change during our work together, my approach shifts with you.
What matters most to me is that you feel safe, heard, and genuinely un-judged. The relationship between a client and counsellor is at the heart of the process — it's not just a backdrop to the work, it is the work. I bring active listening, warmth, and complete confidentiality to every session.
I see clients in a comfortable, private consulting room in Horsham town centre, convenient for parking and public transport. Online and telephone sessions are available for clients anywhere in the UK. Sessions are 50 minutes and cost £50. Concessionary rates are available — please do ask if cost is a concern.
I'm a registered member of both BACP and NCPS, both of which are accredited by the Professional Standards Authority. I currently have availability for new clients.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
Areas of counselling I deal with
Fees
£50.00 per session
Additional information
The initial consultation is free, and if you feel comfortable to work with me after that, sessions cost £50 and last 50 minutes.
Further information
I offer a free initial consultation — by phone or online — with no obligation. It's a chance for you to tell me a little about what's brought you to counselling, ask any questions you have, and get a feel for whether working with me seems right. There's no pressure to commit to anything at that stage.
