About Carol

Carol Whitton is a counsellor who helps people with relationship problems, family tension, trauma and abuse, grief, stress and anxiety. She also supports people facing sleep difficulties, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, career worries, bipolar and depression, and the challenges of life changes.

She has three years of professional experience and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Carol works in a straightforward, respectful way.

Background and approach

Conversations are shaped around each person. She listens carefully and adapts sessions to what feels most useful for the individual. The aim is practical progress rather than labels or jargon.

Her main approach is Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on the person in front of her and their own priorities. This means sessions concentrate on understanding your experience and building your own resources to cope. Carol also pays attention to cultural background and issues such as hoarding when they are relevant to the person’s situation.

People can expect a calm and compassionate tone. Carol explains things plainly and helps people set small, realistic steps between sessions. She encourages self-reflection and practical change at a pace that suits the client.

Carol offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. She provides a mix of contact styles and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, so people can choose what fits their life.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred support delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than labels. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what is heard, and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is often helpful for relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief, anxiety and adjustment to life changes.

Because the work is shaped around the individual, Carol will help you decide what feels most useful. She will discuss goals, preferred ways of talking, and practical steps together. Finding the right approach is a shared process and can change as needs shift over time.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow visual cues and a longer conversation, phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging is useful for ongoing support between conversations. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping contact regular and flexible.
