About me

Hello, my name is Caroline and I offer a safe, compassionate space for adults and teenagers to explore life’s challenges and find a way forward. My work supports individuals facing issues such as trauma, anxiety, grief, loss, depression, parenting difficulties, adoption-related concerns and the many pressures that can feel overwhelming at different stages of life. I use an  'Integrative' approach to counselling, which means I combine different theories to explore unhelpful thought patterns and ways to change limiting behaviours.

With empathy, respect and a non-judgmental approach, I work collaboratively to help clients better understand their experiences, develop coping strategies and build resilience. Whether you are navigating complex emotions, family relationships, or personal transitions, counselling can provide the time and support needed to feel heard, understood, and empowered.

Training, qualifications & experience

I use an 'integrative' approach to counselling which means using a range of techniques from different types of therapy to suit your needs and circumstances. I have a diploma in Adlerian Counselling but use a variety of skills from other modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Human Givens. 

I work with various ages, from adolescence through to adulthood. My training helps clients with experiential learning, self-awareness and personal growth.
I believe that a counselling relationship should be based on equality, inclusiveness, respect and encouragement.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
