Many different things can bring you to counselling and I work with a wide range of issues. I aim to provide a compassionate, empathetic but down to earth approach which takes account of personal history and yet be focused and goal orientated.

I work primarily with a form of CBT called Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT).
I was going to say a few things about me, but that's not why you're here. You're here because you recognise it's time to talk about you. I can help with that. I have worked extensively with clients who experience professional "burn out", relationship issues, bereavement and loss. The list goes on. Having juggled work, family, personal loss, training and much more in recent years, I understand overwhelm. This experience means that I will listen without judgement, empathise and help you find ways to cope, moving on from the unhealthy habits and emotions you're stuck in. We'll work together towards your goals.

My Integrative practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy draws from the therapeutic approaches of Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, and Cognitive Behavioural therapy ( CBT).
My work with St Christopher's Hospice as a bereavement counsellor and an agency for women fleeing domestic abuse, has enabled me to gain an understanding of how these issues do not discriminate. Any age, culture, religion, ethnicity, etc can be affected. I also have over 10 years of experience with adults 65+ with long term bottled-up issues.

CFT is often really helpful where women have had CBT but continue to struggle, experience a lot of self-criticism or shame, or find it hard to feel 'safe' or soothed.
You might feel constantly anxious - tense, on edge, or caught in worry. Or you might feel low, flat, and unsure how to find joy again. Some women come to us feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns in relationships or worn down by people-pleasing or self-criticism. Others are processing trauma or navigating big life changes - from early motherhood to menopause - that have unsettled their confidence. However it shows up, the common thread is emotional overload whilst trying to hold it all together. If you're a woman who wants to feel calmer, more secure in yourself, and able to enjoy life without so much pressure, then we're here for you.

People usually seek therapy because they have reached a crisis point in their life and are struggling to cope alone. This can lead to feeling stuck or creating unhelpful behaviour patterns to cope which present them from living life to their full potential. We often feel confused, anxious, depressed, emotionally numb or trapped in our past without clear goals in life or clear identity. I can offer you a safe space to explore better internal understanding which promotes self awareness, personal growth and inner peace which enables you to feel full of hope and clarity to achieve personal success.

I focus on helping you understand how your mind and body respond to anxiety, working together to gently reduce distress and build confidence through CBT strategies and exposure work at a manageable pace.
Therapist specialising in OCD, Anxiety and PTSD, with ADULTS and children. Anxiety can stop you living the life you want, intrusive thoughts and constant worry can make coping with everyday life difficult. Trauma can lead to frightening flashbacks that leave you feeling stuck, unsafe or alone. In children, these difficulties often appear as big emotions, avoidance, sleep issues or behaviours that families struggle to make sense of. I understand how consuming and isolating these challenges can be. The good news is that OCD, anxiety and PTSD are highly treatable with the right support.

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ( CBT) in my practice.
You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or like you’re no longer yourself. On the outside, life may look perfectly fine — but inside, you’re struggling, overthinking everything, or constantly battling self-doubt. Maybe anxiety and worry are stopping you from doing the things you want to do. Perhaps you’re tired of feeling “not good enough” and wish for a space where you can be honest, listened to, and supported. You might want to quiet the negative thoughts about yourself, to move through your day without anxiety holding you back, or simply to relax and enjoy your time without that constant mental noise.

My experience comes from having worked within a variety of family and child settings, a counselling service for young people, a hospice as a bereavement counsellor, and supporting couples in their relationships. I work with families who foster and the secondary trauma that they can also experience. Although I have been trained in the psychodynamic approach, I work using other models to best suit and help individuals explore and become aware of blocks in their lives, working towards making changes.

Have you found your therapist just yet? It can seem daunting to some with so many to choose from, how do you select correctly? In order to work successfully on your issues its really important to get a good connection with your therapist. Studies tell us that this can lead to better outcomes. Imagine trying to build a relationship and form trust if you do not get along with that person, its probably not going to end well so trust your gut instinct when you reach out, try having a telephone call or video call, monitor how you feel.

When life feels out of focus it's good to talk. My name's Carolyne and I'm a trained integrative counsellor. I can support you to restore your self-confidence, work through your issues and help you recognise you matter too! Everyone’s unique as are our experiences. Something that is overwhelming or difficult to process for you may not be the same for those around you and that’s ok. I’m here to help you unpick what is going on for you in a safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment. So, rather than ignoring the elephant in the room, lets invite it in and talk.
