Audrey Carolan , BACP

Audrey Carolan offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or big life changes. She aims to listen closely and help clients find their own voice again. Audrey works in plain language and focuses on practical steps each person can take between sessions.

She uses a Person Centred approach, also called Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the client’s concerns at the centre of the work. Sessions begin with what the person wants to bring, whether that is grief, low self-esteem, panic, or difficulty with relationships. The therapist follows the conversation and reflects what she hears to help people make sense of their feelings.

Audrey has three years’ experience and holds BACP registration, which is recorded here as BACP. Her background is in helping people manage depression, social anxiety, panic attacks and the strain of coping with life transitions. She also supports issues linked to attachment, abandonment and feelings of emptiness.

Work in sessions is collaborative and paced to the individual. Conversations look at patterns, communication problems and ways to build self-compassion and clearer boundaries. Practical ideas and small experiments are often suggested to test new ways of coping.

Sessions are offered in English and conducted from the United Kingdom. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, so people can choose what fits their routines best.

Person-Centred care and online counselling

Audrey offers Client-Centred Therapy, sometimes called Person Centred, which focuses on listening and reflecting rather than directing. This approach helps people who are dealing with grief, low self-esteem, anxiety or feeling stuck to explore their experience at their own pace.

In sessions she creates a collaborative space where the client’s goals guide the work. The therapist and client decide together which strategies to try and whether to adjust direction over time. Finding the best approach is part of the process and will be reviewed as needs and goals become clearer.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging so people can pick the format that fits their life. Video is useful for a fuller face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or other commitments and allow continuity when travel or relocation makes in-person sessions difficult.
