More about Carole
- 16 years' experience
- Female
- NCPS
I am a National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society accredited and registered psychotherapist with over 16 years professional experience. I offer online, telephone and in person psychotherapy and counselling across the UK and beyond.
I would not describe my practice as work as it is most definitely a vocation and one which I am privileged to have. I am passionate about helping people become the best that they can be and making it long lasting for them.
Throughout my working life I have had the opportunity to support an immeasurable amount of people both here and abroad in many diverse settings from secure mental health wards, Refuges, Prisons, Mental Health drop in Centre's, Hospices, Learning Disability Services, charities and private companies where I have provided mental health support, suicide prevention, and coaching.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with the challenges of cancer and other serious illnesses, grief, loss, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Ultimately we all have everything that we need to be the very best that we can be but sometimes we need support to use it.
Signing up for therapy is the first brave step towards not wasting even more than one more days happiness,
I very much look forward to being here to support you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
