Psychotherapy and counselling in Penrith
We live in a world which throws a lot at us, and expects a lot of us. And, very often, we expect a lot of ourselves too. For many of us, it can help to talk through what we’re dealing with, to help us understand what’s going on and find a way forward.
Whether you’re dealing with aging, anger, anxiety, bereavement, depression, estrangement or family issues, identity, loneliness, long-term health conditions, mortality, powerlessness, relationship difficulties, or simply want to talk things through, I offer a confidential, non-judgmental space to explore what you’re feeling, and how you can manage it. We’re all different and we all need to find our own way. I can help you do that.
My name is Caro. I'm a counsellor and psychotherapist with over 20 years experience working in diversity and inclusion. I've helped people manage workplace stress, sort out who they are, explore coming out, work through the complexities of gender transition, grieve for their parents and partners and pets, shout their way through anger and frustration, and address their addictive behaviours.
I usually work on weekly or fortnightly appointments, but am happy to consider other options. There is no time limit to how many sessions you can have, nor any sense that you are committing to months of therapy. We can start working together, and when you feel ready to stop, or to take a break for a while, that’s what we will do.
I work from my home in Penrith, Cumbria. I also work by video (using Zoom and WhatsApp primarily) and by phone. If you would like to work with me, we can meet or talk within a few days to answer any questions you might have. I offer a free 15 minute chat to meet potential new clients, and explore whether we might be a good fit to work together. My first appointment is at 8am, and my last appointment is at 5.00pm. I work Monday to Friday.
My practice is in central Penrith and there is disc parking. I'm also close to Carlisle, Cockermouth, Kendal, Keswick, Appleby, Kirkby Lonsdale, and the towns and villages of the Lake District and western side of the North York and Yorkshire Dales National Parks.
