About me
Hello, my name is Carolyn, but most people call me Cal.
For the past 15 years I’ve been supporting people with mental health issues in their workplace through Remploy Ltd and Maximus UK. I have been able to use this experience of working with vulnerable and Neurodiverse adults, on a range of areas from trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, loss, ADHD, Autism and other neurodiverse conditions, to enhance my counselling practice.
I understand how debilitating it can be to have your mental health get in the way of you living your best life. I have studied the necessary counselling qualifications so that I have the skills necessary to support you effectively in your therapeutic journey. See below for details of my qualifications.
I understand that you are unique. My training, along with my experiences of working with people who struggle with their mental health allows me to adapt my way of working to each client’s individual needs. I view therapy as a collaborative process, in which both the therapist and the client contribute. A supportive and trusting relationship is, in my opinion, critical to success in your journey.
The combination of my personal and professional experiences has shaped the person and counsellor I am today. Together, we will explore your emotional world and the possible roots of what’s limiting you. I am here to listen to you. I will help you to understand your behaviours and what motivates your patterns of behaviour. Once we start working together, I will hold the space for you, helping and supporting you until you are where you want to be.
Details on my qualifications
I am trained in three main therapeutic frameworks: psychodynamic, person-centred and CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy). I work mainly in a person-centred way, which places you at the heart of the process.
Through my qualifications as a Pluralistic Psychotherapist/Counsellor, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Hypnotherapist & Neuro-linguistic Programming Therapist, I’ve continued to develop the skills and tools to help you with whatever issue is limiting your life.
