Life is a journey of discovery of the self, and diversity is the beauty of this world. Who a person is and what makes them happy is unique and most of the time different from others. Being truthful to self brings resilience, but even so, life can be a continuous challenge. Maybe right now you feel you are on the journey of self-discovery, or you want to start it. Perhaps, you are facing some new or old challenges in life that you want to overcome, control, get the better outcome of it, or get over it. Or you want to make some sense of some old matters that still influence your life, or to take control of some ongoing ones.

There are times when we need to speak to someone outside our circle of family and friends. Psychotherapy offers you a space to explore what has brought you to this place. I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and Parent-Infant Psychotherapist, working in private practice in Northampton and London W1. I work with adults and with parents and infants, from conception to two years of age. I am interested in the impact of early relational difficulties and trauma on how our later relationships are shaped and how these ways of being play out in our lives.

Your possibly feeling overwhelmed, emotional, confused and worried about how you are thinking, feeling and if you are ever going to get "better". Anxious about talking to a stranger, particularly about something so personal to you, and maybe low because you need to do this. Hi I'm Carol, I know choosing the right counsellor for you can be one of the hardest decisions you can make when you are struggling. I'd would like to say how brave I think you are in taking this first step, it takes a lot of courage to admit that you may not be able to do it alone and need a little help to get you where you want to be.

At heart, I am a personal centred counsellor, meaning that you are truly at the core of my work. My holistic style is different to that of the clinical practitioner but I feel it brings a certain warmth and calmness that I believe is crucial for successful therapy. My clients come to me for a variety of reasons, but they all have one thing in common, and that's what they want - change. You may not know what that change is or how to make that change, but I will provide a space for us to explore this and work together to find out.

Do you feel completely overwhelmed, as if life is a constant battle? Do you question whether you are a good enough mum, and feel as though everyone else knows some secret that you don’t? You never thought being a mum would be this hard, why do you feel so upset caring for those you love? You endlessly strive to do more, to be more, but it never feels enough? You search for the answers, for some magic to make things easier, but rather than finding answers you feel more confused and overwhelmed.

With 20 yrs Counselling and Psychology experience, I now seek to work with two main client groups. 1) Clients who've already reached a deeper understanding of their issues, symptoms & diagnoses (via therapy &/or self-help etc), but have found that these insights have not been sufficient to end their psychological suffering. And 2) Parents/carers/educators struggling with youngsters who can be violent, self-destructive &/or very defiant. These clients have found that traditional reward & punishment approaches fail to solve (or indeed actually escalate) the problem and are looking for an effective, trauma-sensitive alternative.

Choosing a therapist can be a daunting process, one I believe starts with our profile picture, only then do we go a little deeper to see if they have the experience to help with what ails us. Then it is about connection that first contact, can we trust this person to hold our trauma, to hold our memories, to journey alongside us as the process of healing begins? You may want to work on a repeating pattern or an unresolved issue, not knowing where to start. You might just want someone to listen, to not judge you or shame. What ever your need, I will listen.
