I provide support for adults experiencing midlife changes (e.g. perimenopausal depression and anxiety, stress and burnout, sleep and insomnia).
I also offer neuroaffirming Autism assessments for adults. This assessment is not deficits focused but is instead a collaborative process where we explore your experiences, interests, discoveries, preferences, strengths and differences to see if they align with an Autistic experience.

Life can throw us curve balls and can be very challenging at times, however how we approach that challenge and difficulty will determine what sort of outcome we get from it. Caroline sees it as a honour and a privilege to support people through some of their most difficult times, as well as, to support them when their aim is to further enrich and advance their lives and relationships. Her approach is very much one of care and understanding. She holds a space that allows you to feel safe to express and share, which can seem difficult during challenging times.

Can you relate to either of these statements? “I’m so over hurtful relationships. I’m starting to think I’ll be single forever” "We can’t keep fighting like this.

I believe all people have an innate capacity for wisdom and, with this, a natural capacity for healing. I aim to empower people by supporting their connection to this inner wisdom while gently addressing the barriers that may limit access to it and prevent them from living a full and enriching life. Many people experience difficulties related to unresolved issues from the past, stressful relationship dynamics, work-related challenges, self-defeating behavioural patterns, and self-critical ways of thinking. Psychological counselling can help to develop insight, build on your strengths, and support meaningful and lasting change.

We all need support, no-one can do life on their own. For 20 years I have been supporting people dealing with life issues. When we build a solid foundation from the ground up, we can let go of the overwhelm, from there we are just moving along the conveyer belt dealing with life as it gets presented. Building a solid foundation that can withstand the hick-ups. The more we choose to deal with the more solid our foundation becomes. This is where the work begins.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.
Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.
Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.
What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
