A very warm welcome to my page and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I am a fully qualified person-centred counsellor. I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and psychotherapy (MBACP) and therefore adhere to their code of ethics.
I am a warm, empathic, and understanding person who is hugely passionate about mental health, personal growth, awareness, and development. My philosophy as a qualified person-centred counsellor, respects and values each individual as their own person with their own unique experiences. I endeavor to provide a calm, safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space for you to freely explore whatever may be troubling you. My work is grounded in the belief that being alongside you in your pain, internal conflict and mental distress enables you to express your deepest feelings and emotions and feel heard and valued. I typically work in an experiential way, naturally guided to draw attention to and focus on particular aspects of your experiencing, enabling you to unfold and openly express yourself. I hold dear the person-centred belief that you are the expert on yourself and thus have the capacity to find your own way forward with counselling support. I strive to work collaboratively in building a trusting and connecting relationship to promote therapeutic change and healing thus helping you to move towards a more fulfilled life.
I may introduce creativity into the sessions to enhance your process, deepen self-exploration, self-understanding, and encourage self-expression. This may include the use of emotion cards, creative writing, drawing, painting, collaging etc. I continue to work in a person-centred way to help you find your own personal meaning behind your creation which is free from judgment, diagnosis, and interpretation. Working therapeutically in a creative way will always be mutually discussed beforehand. Your choice/preference will be totally heard and respected so please do let me know if this way of working doesn't feel right for you. I have worked with people from all different walks of life experiencing a range of different issues including abuse, trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem/confidence, low self-worth, shame, attachment, and relationship issues.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Caroline Hobson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Caroline is one in a million! Caroline has and still does put herself in my shoes when I’m talking about some of the most difficult things I’ve experienced. She has the ability to comprehend plus communicate with compassion and empathy at all times. Her natural capability to recognize my feelings as well as the emotions that sometimes I struggle to express has enabled me to reflect and work toward closure. There is never any judgment and I always sense that she is speaking from her heart at all times. Overall, Caroline exemplifies the professionalism in conjunction with the candor, respect and trustworthiness of an outstandingly skilled counsellor.

In the 8/9 months I've been speaking to Caroline my life has totally turned around, because of Caroline's support, respect and validation I've gone from being a total mess to being functional and actually happy. I can't express how grateful I am to Caroline, she has genuinely changed my life, my outlook on things is different, I've become such a positive person and all the hard work I've put into sorting out my own head has been supported ridiculously well by Caroline. On top of the overwhelming change in me from my meetings with Caroline I find her to be very professional, insightful, respectful, supportive and in all honesty most sessions I have with her end with the pair of us laughing and smiling. I would recommend Caroline as a therapist to anybody seeking support. She's an amazing therapist and from our meetings I'd firmly say she's one of the best people I've ever had the fortune to interact with.

Written on Jan 31, 2023 after therapy with Caroline for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, and grief
Caroline has been brilliant! I’ve spoken to other counsellors in the past but no one has been as quick as Caroline to understand my story and the things I’ve wanted to work through. She’s helped me see things more clearly and has provided practical suggestions when I’ve wanted them. Caroline has shown great care and is easy to talk to. She’s been flexible to connect around working hours and has offered a huge level of support. I’d highly recommend her.

Caroline’s been amazingly helpful in helping me understand my own thoughts and feelings. She’s managed to take me from a very dark place and bring me back to enjoying life consciously with all of its details.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Caroline, especially if you feel you have difficulties in processing your own feelings.
