Trusted Support For Anxiety And Low Mood
Finding relief from anxiety and low mood begins with having a safe, supportive space. I am fully DBS checked and insured to work with children, which means you can expect the highest standards of safeguarding during your therapy journey with me.
With extensive experience supporting both adults and young people through a range of mental health challenges, I conduct every session in a compassionate and confidential environment. My approach is always tailored to you, focusing on building trust and helping you make practical progress.
Personalised Strategies For Individual Needs
I recognise that every person's experience with anxiety and low mood is unique, so the therapy I offer is always bespoke. During our sessions, we'll explore your personal challenges and work together to identify root causes.
Using techniques from cognitive hypnotherapy, I design strategies that fit your specific needs and preferences.
Whether you need support rebuilding confidence, reducing stress, or managing low mood, my priority is to empower you with meaningful tools and guidance that make a real difference in day-to-day life.
Professional Qualifications And Robust Safeguarding
Trust is the foundation of my therapeutic work. My practice is backed by full DBS certification, comprehensive insurance for working with children, and adherence to the codes of ethics set by the QCHPA and the National Council for Hypnotherapy.
My commitment to regulatory compliance and ongoing professional development gives you—and your family—peace of mind that support will always be safe, ethical, and professional.
I started seeing Cara last year when I was in a state of overwhelming anxiety and depression. I was very low and had tried counselling and CBT in the past, and just needed something else. Following several close family deaths, health issues and friendship troubles, I struggled to leave the house or be around others. From the very first session, I noticed a change. Cara was calm, supportive and comforting. She knew exactly how to help me, and after a few sessions, my anxiety and depression scores went from top of the scale to bottom of the scale. I have tackled some deep-rooted issues from childhood, which were painful, but they have been the key to my progress. I am so glad I chose Cara and feel so much happier, healthier and lighter. I am planning on tackling my spider phobia with her next! Thanks so much for changing everything x

By giving you access to practical guidance whenever you need it, I aim to help you build resilience and maintain progress throughout your mental health journey.
