About Carol

Carol Gordon is a counsellor who brings four years of professional experience to her work. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Carol creates sessions that adapt to each person’s needs and focuses on practical ways to cope with everyday challenges.

She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence and aims to make people feel heard. Sessions are shaped around what a person wants to achieve, using clear, simple strategies rather than jargon.

Background and approach

Many clients come for help with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem and mood concerns. Carol also supports people facing relationship strains, parenting pressures, career uncertainty and issues with addiction. She works with trauma, grief, intimacy worries and problems linked to body image or eating.

Her additional focus areas include coping with abandonment, communication problems and feelings of emptiness. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred methods and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, with options such as hypnotherapy and Jungian ideas when appropriate. Sessions mix talking, practical exercises and mindfulness tools to build new ways of coping.

Therapy is offered in English and provided via online formats. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions that fit their needs. Carol aims to help people move toward clearer goals and better day-to-day functioning.

How Carol's approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values and actions that matter. It is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes where getting unstuck is the goal.

Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the individual's experience and builds a trusting relationship. This approach helps people feel heard and understood while they work through self-esteem, grief or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and teaches practical techniques to change them. It is often used for anxiety, sleeping problems and mood difficulties.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and collaborate with each person to choose techniques that suit their needs, goals and preferences. Adjustments can be made as therapy progresses to keep it relevant and effective.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when preferred. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typing, need flexible timing, or want brief, focused support between longer sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into daily life.
