Counsellor in Milton Keynes

Hello, I’m Carolyn, a qualified counsellor offering counselling for adults in Milton Keynes and online.

Many people come to counselling feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand, or carrying a sense that life feels harder than it seems to for other people.

I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly about your experiences and begin to make sense of what is happening for you. My approach is person-centred and trauma-informed, meaning I believe you are the expert in your own life and that counselling should move at a pace that feels safe and right for you.

I support adults experiencing anxiety, low mood, burnout, low self-worth, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and life transitions.

I also have a particular interest in supporting neurodivergent adults, including those with ADHD or autism.

Some people I work with have received a diagnosis later in life, while others may be questioning whether neurodivergence could explain some of their experiences or are waiting for assessment. You may have spent years feeling different from others, wondering why certain things seem harder for you, feeling overwhelmed by everyday demands, or exhausted from trying to cope. Counselling can provide a supportive space to explore these experiences, develop greater self-understanding, and move towards self-acceptance.

I also support women navigating perimenopause and menopause, recognising the emotional, physical, and identity changes that can accompany this stage of life.

Alongside my private practice, I have experience supporting survivors of sexual violence and work in a trauma-informed way, recognising how past experiences can affect emotional wellbeing, relationships, and a person’s sense of self.

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work in accordance with their ethical framework, ensuring that your wellbeing, confidentiality, and autonomy remain at the heart of our work together.
