About Caroline

Caroline Lina Headland uses a person-centred approach that puts the client's experience at the heart of sessions. She explains things plainly and works alongside people to make sense of worries and find workable steps forward. Caroline aims for a warm, respectful way of working that acknowledges courage is needed to start therapy.

She brings six years of professional experience to issues such as anxiety, depression and trauma and abuse. Caroline also helps people facing relationship and family tensions, parenting strains, and the emotional effects of addiction or grief.

Background and approach

She can support those coping with mood disorders including bipolar, and with concerns about eating, sleeping and anger. Caroline uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen deeply and shape the work around what matters to each person. She also draws on Somatic Therapy to help people notice and work with how stress and feelings show up in the body.

Sessions can include practical tools and creative ways of working to match different needs. She talks plainly about attachment issues, guilt and shame, low self-esteem, social anxiety and phobia, and women’s issues. Caroline is open to discussing intimacy-related concerns and LGBT-related matters in a direct, non-judgemental way.

Her style aims to build trust so people feel able to address painful memories and current struggles. Caroline practises in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers help in English and accepts international clients.

Getting started involves a short matching process and scheduling a first appointment.

How Client‑Centred and Somatic Approaches Work Online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to you so you feel understood and can find your own solutions. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to talk through relationships, stress, low self-esteem and life changes. Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and tension and uses gentle awareness and movement to help with anxiety, trauma reactions and how feelings are held in the body.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Caroline will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide whether to emphasise person-centred listening, somatic awareness, or a mix of both. The choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit practical needs. Video lets you use visual cues for a fuller conversation, phone can be simpler when video is difficult, and messaging or chat can fit short check-ins or busy schedules. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and travel commitments.
