About Caroline

Caroline Sharp offers a warm, practical counselling style that focuses on helping people manage overwhelming thoughts and feelings. She works in a collaborative way and aims to help clients make changes at a pace that feels right for them. Caroline's listing with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy is included as a professional credential in her background.

She draws on a mix of approaches to suit different needs, including attachment-based, client-centred, mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas.

Background and approach

That mix lets her shift between short-term practical work and deeper, reflective conversation. Sessions are shaped around what each person brings, not a fixed programme. Caroline has practised for 25 years across a range of concerns.

She has supported people with anxiety, stress, depression, bipolar mood issues, trauma and abuse, and grief. Relationship and intimacy issues, parenting worries, adoption and foster care matters, and family of origin problems are also areas she addresses.

Additional focuses include eating and sleeping difficulties, attention differences such as ADHD, compassion fatigue and caregiver stress, fertility and fatherhood issues, and problems with communication, control or codependency. She also works with people experiencing cancer related challenges and life transitions. Caroline offers both short- and long-term counselling and adapts sessions to a person's needs.

She uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life. Appointments use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Caroline combines attachment-based and client-centred approaches with mindfulness to shape online sessions that match what a person needs. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how these affect current feelings and reactions, which can benefit those with relationship strain or family of origin issues. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can find their own solutions and feel heard during stressful times. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce anxiety, ease overwhelm and improve sleep.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Caroline will collaborate with each person to decide which mix of methods fits their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time, and sessions are adjusted together as needs shift.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different days and routines. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation; phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat or messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care and fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
