Caroline Nartey, NCPS

Caroline uses client-centred work to keep sessions focused on what matters now. This approach involves listening closely and helping people draw on their own strengths to make changes that feel achievable. It can be useful for stress, low mood and problems with self-esteem.

She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how earlier experiences shape current patterns. That perspective helps people uncover repeated ways of relating or defence habits and understand why they keep happening, which can ease long-standing difficulties such as attachment concerns or repeated relationship problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Caroline will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will adapt methods collaboratively rather than following a fixed plan. This means the therapy can include focused problem-solving one week and deeper reflection the next.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or if someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, reflection between sessions or when writing helps people organise thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep contact consistent over time.
