I first contacted Carolyn in 2020 when I was at the lowest I've ever felt. I wasn't even sure whether counselling would help (I had tried other counsellors in the past and not made much headway) but I was basically desperate to be able to rid myself of anxiety and depression and be able to function normally again for the sake of my daughter. Carolyn made me feel at ease from the first time we spoke to arrange an appointment and gave me practical techniques to use to deal with anxiety attacks from the off. In our sessions we discussed things I'd never even considered may be creating negative thought processes such as childhood events. I was often embarrassed by how upset trivial things made me but Carolyn always put me at ease and was never judgmental. It's great to meet someone you feel can tell anything to without being judged. I would sometimes dread appointments, knowing we would probably rake up hard things to talk about but would always feel a hundred times better after we had got to the root of the problem during our session (family members always knew if I had spoken to Carolyn as I was so much stronger and calmer!). Although I no longer have regular sessions, it gives me peace of mind knowing I can book a one off appointment within a few days if I need a 'reset' or just someone to talk things through with. Carolyn helped me to realise that anxiety and depression is an illness I may never be rid of but that I am strong enough to manage. 

I will forever be grateful to Carolyn for being there for me when I was at my lowest and had nowhere else to turn. She gave my daughter her mum back and made me feel more at peace with myself than I ever have before. My only wish is that I had got in touch with Carolyn for support years ago!

Working with Carolyn change my life, I was diagnosed with ADHD later in life and was struggling with how to cope. I learnt ways of managing my behaviours and understood myself and how I tick. Best decision I made engaging with therapy.

My daughter was struggling with anxiety and low mood, since having therapy with Carolyn she has improved hugely and her confidence has grown so much.

I had Angelic Reiki with Carolyn, first time I had tried Reiki and I couldn't believe how I felt after the session. I was so relaxed and calm, my anxiety has lessened since having regular session. It has become part of my self care and  i so look forward to having my Reiki.
