Hello, my name is Cara, coming to counselling can be daunting and finding the right counsellor is crucial. Building trust and forging a genuine therapeutic relationship is essential and I am committed to you, the client.
I am an experienced BACP-accredited counsellor dedicated to supporting people through life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and respect. With many years of practice, I have worked with clients of all ages — from children and young people navigating the complexities of growing up, to adults. My mission is to empower you to discover your own ‘tools’ and ‘techniques’ to face any future life challenges
I use an integrative person-centred approach; I tailor each session to your individual needs and work with you, your feelings and your own life experiences. I specialise in issues ranging from: anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, Emotional School Based Avoidance (EBSA) to supporting women going through the Menopause transition.
I believe that every person’s story is unique. My approach is warm, collaborative, and non-judgemental, creating a safe space where you can explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences at your own pace. You do not have to go through difficult times alone — together, we can work towards greater understanding, coping strategies, and emotional wellbeing.
