About Caroline

Caroline Lina Headland uses a person-centred approach to guide people through stressful and painful times. She draws on six years of experience to help clients talk through anxiety, depression, relationship strain and trauma. Caroline offers straightforward, warm support and adapts conversations to each person’s needs. She accepts people from the United Kingdom and beyond and works in English.

Caroline focuses on practical listening and thoughtful questioning to help people make sense of their feelings. She pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and can use gentle somatic techniques alongside talk-based work. This can be useful when anxiety, grief or memories of abuse feel stuck or overwhelming.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including parenting challenges, family conflict, addictions, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, self-esteem and career-related stress. She also supports people with ADHD, bipolar symptoms, intimacy-related issues and grief. Additional attention is given to attachment patterns, guilt and shame, social anxiety, self-love and women’s issues.

Sessions are shaped around what each person brings. Caroline offers open, non-judgemental space and works at a pace clients find manageable. She aims to help people build understanding, try small changes and notice effects in daily life.

Caroline holds BACP as a credential and draws on that framework in her practice. If someone prefers creative or body-focused ways of working, she can include those methods alongside person-centred conversation.

Approaches that use talking and the body online

Caroline uses person-centred work to place the client’s experience at the heart of therapy. This approach involves careful listening and reflection so people can better understand their feelings and choices. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, relationship strain and questions about identity.

She also draws on somatic ideas to bring attention to bodily signals like tension, breath and posture. Those practices can help when emotions feel stuck or when trauma and stress show up physically, offering a different route to noticing change.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Caroline will discuss options, listen to goals and try methods that suit the person’s pace and preferences. Over the first few sessions she will adapt the mix of talking and body-focused work so it fits practical aims and personal comfort.

Online sessions include video calls, phone appointments, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be lighter on bandwidth, and text options work for short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
