Carol Dyce - Integrative counselling/psychotherapy

 It takes courage to seek counselling – whether it’s your first nervous step or a return to therapy –and it can be daunting, especially when you’re feeling anxious and low, finding the “right’ counsellor for you.

You may be “just not feeling myself” unable to live life to the full, confused and stuck why. Or perhaps you know your challenges and struggle to share them with your family and friends. Your feelings become “the elephant in the room” as you fear being a “burden." 

Maybe you’re a young person, stressed about exams, figuring out who you are, apprehensive about adulthood and what that means for you.

Do you put on a smile and “get on with it” because that’s what you’ve always done – always been expected todo?

I’ll create a warm, non-judgemental space where you can talk without fear of upsetting anyone; accepted for the person you are as we explore how you can grow into the person you want to become.

I'm a fully qualified, British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) accredited counsellor. I work integratively, which means I shape my approach to meet your needs as you’re an individual with unique experiences and your own take on the world.

I won’t tell you what to do or give you advice – I think you are the expert on you – as we try to untangle your thoughts together. If useful, we may explore your childhood and more recent past to identify any issues or patterns which may still affect you and your relationships today.

Alongside my private practice, I work with Off The Record Twickenham, a local charity providing counselling for young people 11-24 and The Brain Tumour Charity, working with people living with brain tumours and their family and friends. I have extensive experience in supporting people living with terminal diagnoses and their families,

I offer a free 15-minute phone or Zoom call – whichever you prefer – so I can tell you a bit more about how I work, answer your questions, and see if we think we could work together – it’s crucial that you feel as comfortable as possible with your therapist.

You'll always be at the heart of our therapeutic relationship. I’ll be alongside you always trying to “get” you and your evolving needs. I will strive to do – be -my best to nurture you with tenderness and compassion to find your own way at your own pace to your true self and a happier life.

Take that next step and email, text or leave me a voicemail and I’ll get back to you within 24 hours.
