About me
I'm Carolyn, an autistic counsellor in Milton Keynes. There are lots of reasons you might be looking for counselling, after all, everyone faces difficult situations and painful experiences. As a person-centred counsellor, I offer you the space and time to explore whatever feels important, in a non-judgemental and safe setting.
I believe that everyone has the capacity to grow, change, and heal, given the right conditions. Empathy is key to the way I work. It's important to me to offer authentic warmth and care to clients, so that you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Together we can explore ideas and options, helping you to imagine a new way forward.
Being autistic means that I'm able to really understand the experience of being neurodivergent. If you're autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, or neurodivergent in another way, I welcome you to reach out and see if I can support you with whatever brings you to counselling.
Training, qualifications & experience
I'm an accredited member of UKCP. I have an MSc in Person-Centred and Experiential Psychotherapy, from 2025, which I pursued having initially qualified with a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling in 2021. I have been seeing clients since the beginning of 2020.
I work with adult individuals and couples .
I have experience working with trauma, especially sexual abuse and domestic abuse. I'm also autistic and I enjoy working with neurodivergent clients, especially autistic clients, those with ADHD, and AuDHD.

Further information
I work in a person-centred way, working to understand what is bringing you to counselling and what your hopes and goals are. I am trauma-informed, meaning I can understand the ways in which trauma of all different types can affect you. I also practice in accordance with my values, working in an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, neurodiversity-affirming, and body-positive way.
