About Caroline
Caroline Hobson offers a person-centred approach to counselling that focuses on the individual and their own experience. She works to create a calm, warm space where people can talk through what feels difficult and be heard without judgement. Caroline is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and follows their ethical code.
Her practice is rooted in person-centred principles. That means she listens closely, reflects what she hears, and supports people to find their own solutions.
Background and approach
Sessions may include creative tools such as drawing, writing or collaging when that feels helpful to the person. Caroline uses an experiential style that can bring attention to what someone is actually feeling in the moment. This can help with emotional expression and making sense of painful experiences.
She says people are treated as the expert on themselves rather than being judged or labelled. She has three years of counselling experience and has supported people with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction and eating concerns. Other areas she works with include stress, relationship and intimacy-related worries, grief and self-esteem difficulties.
Caroline also supports those facing family problems, attachment difficulties, codependency, divorce and separation, and the effects of domestic violence. She will discuss any creative methods beforehand and will respect a person's choice if they prefer a different way of working.

Approaches Caroline lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also uses an experiential style which brings attention to present feelings and bodily experience. That approach can aid emotional expression and make it easier to talk about trauma, attachment issues and shame. Creative methods such as drawing or writing may be offered to deepen self-exploration when the person wishes to try them.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Caroline will work with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences, adapting as therapy progresses. Decisions about creative tools, session pace and focus are discussed together so the work fits the individual's needs.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexible ways to connect. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, and chat or messaging can be used for people who prefer typing or need brief, frequent contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments.
