About me

Hi, my name is Caroline and I am an MSc qualified & experienced counsellor and psychotherapist to help you feel safe and able to work through your experiences in a gentle way. How would you feel if you didn’t have those difficult feelings or traumatic memories? Those feelings that can seem impossible or overwhelming really can feel different. Or maybe you just need to have someone you feel safe to talk with. I would be pleased to work with you. I qualified as a counsellor in 2020 at Keele University, and am currently studying an aspect of nutrition and its impact on our mental health. I have been working therapeutically with clients using EFT (Tapping) and Matrix Reimprinting since 2015 both in person and online.

My counselling style is person-centred with an integrative approach. When appropriate, I use the quick, easy and gentle tools of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique or Tapping) to get to the core of issues, to transform & resolve. Matrix Re-imprinting is another tool I use which allows us to be able to feel differently about past traumas or unhelpful thoughts or behaviours. When appropriate, I borrow from some CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and Transactional Analysis approaches. I have worked with a wide range of experiences with a particular ability to work with very difficult life experiences or very unhelpful behaviours.

To give you a few examples (and this is not an exhaustive list), clients have had anxiety, anger, depression, family issues or were feeling sad. Low self-confidence and low self-esteem as well as panic attacks and social anxiety have also featured, plus self-harming. Trauma and childhood trauma are sadly far too common and I have worked with suicidal feelings and experiences. Some of my clients have either had autistic tendencies or diagnosed on the autism spectrum.

I have needed my fair share of help in my time and know what courage that takes to seek help. My aim is to support and empower you on your journey.

I aim to offer you your first session within 36 hours of first connecting with me - even if a counselling session doesn't seem available on my schedule. We'll sort this via message to find something that works for us both.

I look forward to working with you.

I have found Caroline kind, experienced and empathetic. She has helped me through one of the most difficult periods of my life. Her support and understanding has been invaluable to me. I strongly recommend Caroline and the BetterHelp service.

Caroline is an extremely kind, caring and considerate therapist. I have found it really challenging to open up and share some of my intrusive thoughts that absolutely terrify me and make me feel extremely vulnerable but I am so glad I have started to share with Caroline. Caroline has been patient and considerate and we have gone at my pace. Caroline makes me feel extremely reassured and safe in sessions and she has given me a lot of hope that things will get better in time. She makes me feel like my experiences are valid, real and not something to be belittled or dismissed and that I am not alone. She is incredible at what she does and just wish I had started working with her sooner!
