Writing & Therapy
Counselling, therapeutic writing groups, training, workshops, and retreats — online and in person across Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Bristol and Bath
Hello, I’m Caroline
I’m a counsellor, writer, group facilitator, and trainer based in North Wiltshire. I offer a warm, non-judgemental space where you can explore your experiences, challenges, and what matters most to you.
Writing and therapy are both powerful ways to support mental wellbeing. I offer each independently, as well as an integrated approach that gently brings them together. You can choose counselling with or without a writing element, and I also run writing groups that can be more or less therapeutic depending on the needs and intentions of the group.
Through this work, I can support you in making sense of your experiences, exploring different aspects of your life, and building a foundation for meaningful change at your own pace.
I believe that as we come to know, understand, and accept ourselves more fully, we can begin to experience greater confidence, clarity, and peace.
