I’m Carolyn, a psychotherapeutic counsellor and coach, dedicated to supporting people in finding compassion, curiosity, and meaning in their lives.
My sessions are warm, relational, and shaped around your unique needs and where you are right now.
Holding diplomas in both counselling and coaching, I feel privileged to support both individuals and couples, often at points of transition or when life feels overwhelming.
My psychotherapy training is in Transactional Analysis, which offers practical tools to understand yourself, your relationships, and the situations you face more clearly. I also draw on other modalities, tailoring our work together to what best supports you.
In the first part of my professional journey, I held senior roles in education for over 25 years. Outside of my practice, I’m also a classical pianist, and creativity continues to be at the heart of how I connect with and support the people I work with.
