About Carol

Carol Gordon works on stress, anxiety, sleep problems, anger and self-esteem using a mix of practical talking therapies. She is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience and is based in the United Kingdom.

Carol uses several methods in sessions and adapts them to what a person needs. She works with issues linked to ADHD such as procrastination, organisation, sleep and career pressures. She also supports people facing relationship concerns, loss, trauma and struggles around eating and body image.

Her way of working is person-centred in tone, which means conversations focus on the client's experience and priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness techniques are drawn on to help people notice thoughts and act in line with their values.

Hypnotherapy and Jungian ideas are also part of the mix when they suit the client's goals. Sessions aim to be practical, with time spent on coping strategies, planning and small experiments between meetings. Carol also offers coaching around life purpose and career planning for people wanting clearer direction.

People who get the most from her approach tend to want a clear plan as well as a listening space. The focus is on making manageable changes so daily life feels steadier and more controlled. To start, visitors are asked to use the site matching process and book a first session.

How Carol uses therapeutic approaches in online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take small actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience in the room and on what they want to work on, offering a reflective, listening-based way to sort priorities and feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses simple exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns; this is often used for anxiety, sleep problems and mood difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and make choices together with the client based on goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying different techniques to see what fits best for the person's situation.

The practical benefits of online sessions should be checked before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Ask which session options are currently offered and how they fit into a weekly routine. Online work can make it easier to schedule appointments around work, reduce travel time and allow for different ways of taking part such as shorter check-ins or sessions without video if that helps with concentration or bandwidth.
