About Carol
Carol Gordon is a BACP counsellor practising from the United Kingdom. She has four years of professional experience and combines several approaches to shape therapy that fits each person. Carol describes her manner as caring and non-judgemental, and she aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable.
Her sessions are tailored to the needs and preferences of the person in front of her. She draws on person-centred ideas to create a respectful space where people feel heard.
Background and approach
Carol also uses cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness practices to help with thoughts, habits and everyday stresses. She has an interest in attention and organisation difficulties and helps with practical problems such as procrastination, sleep and work-related strain. Carol also supports people facing anxiety, low mood, grief, trauma, relationship and intimacy issues, and difficulties around eating and body image.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation and practical steps to try between sessions. Hypnotherapy and Jungian ideas are available as part of her blended approach when they suit a person’s aims. Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and on small, achievable actions.
Carol offers a warm working style and invites people to take the first step when they feel ready. She works in English and does not take international clients. The usual way to begin is to complete a short matching form and then arrange sessions once a match is made.

Online support
She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep sessions person-led and respectful. That approach means the counsellor follows the person’s pace and priorities and listens without judgement. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work and Carol will collaborate with each person to choose what fits their needs, goals and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy around work or family life. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be good for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typed conversation or want flexible, brief contact between appointments. These options give practical flexibility while maintaining a clear therapeutic focus.
