    Carolyn supports people to develop better understanding of themselves and others; building inner awareness, address lifes difficulties and make the changes they want in their lives. She draws on a wide range of therapy interventions and is highly skilled in working across the spectrum of life's difficulties. Carolyn works with current challenges and longer term difficulties. She provides both short and longer term services according to people's needs.

     

    How does Carolyn work?

    Carolyn works within clearly contracted, ethical relationships to support people to explore and resolve life's challenges. She focuses on enhancing people's capacity to navigate specific life challenges in all areas of life and specifically in:

    • relationships, parenting
    • general life challenges
    • conflict
    • bereavement; grief and loss, end of life
    • spirituality; meaning and purpose
    • anxiety/depression
    • addictions
    • trauma
    • health and wellbeing

    Carolyn provides guidance that will help resolve crises, reduce distress, develop goals for change and improve wellbeing. Her sessions also assist with problem solving and developing inner resources to move on with life in meaningful ways. Often people notice that the nature of their personal difficulties is repetitive. Similar issues arise time and time again in different contexts and relationships. Carolyn can help improve self understanding and change long-standing patterns of behaviour that may be disrupting overall wellbeing, impacting on other areas of life in general.

     

    How will Carolyn support you?

    Carolyn has respect for her clients values, beliefs, uniqueness and their right to self-determination. Over time, the gentle, safe, non-judgemental nature of Carolyn's counselling sessions makes it possible to explore experiences and unknown parts of self. She can guide and support you to explore new ways of seeing and being that aid in transformation and change increasing overall personal wellbeing and ease in life.

    - Samuel 2021

     

    "When I started seeing Carolyn I was by many standards doing well, yet I had an unexplained sense of crisis that resulted in severe anxiety and panic attacks. Carolyn talked me through and guided me to excavate unaddressed trauma that I had held unconsciously for too long. She helped me develop techniques and skills to become more reflexive and capable of managing my emotions. Thank you so much Carolyn, you are a gem!”
