Carly Tawse – Integrative Counsellor

I’m Carly, a BACP-registered integrative counsellor. I work with people who are feeling anxious, stuck or overwhelmed, or who may look like they’re coping on the outside but find things more difficult beneath the surface.

I often support people experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and the impact of past experiences or trauma. I see therapy as a space where we can be curious together, not about quick fixes but about understanding yourself more fully and finding new ways forward.

I offer a warm, thoughtful and non-judgmental space where you can feel comfortable bringing parts of yourself you may usually keep hidden.

As an integrative counsellor I draw from several therapeutic approaches depending on what feels most useful for you. My foundation is in person-centred and psychodynamic therapy and I also use elements of CBT and psychoeducation when they feel helpful.

I’m an engaged therapist. I’ll listen closely, reflect with you and gently challenge when it may help us see things in a new way. I also keep in mind the bigger picture including how family, culture, class and social context shape the ways we learn to cope, connect and relate to ourselves and others.

Whether you’re looking for short-term support or something more open-ended, we’ll shape the work together at your pace.

If you’re thinking about starting therapy I offer a free 15-minute phone call. It’s a chance to ask questions, share a little about what’s bringing you here and get a feel for how I work.

You don’t need to have a clear goal. Many people come to therapy simply knowing something doesn’t feel right and it’s completely okay to start from there.

If we decide to work together we’ll agree on a regular weekly time to meet. Sessions last 50 minutes and take place either in person or online.

£65 per session (50 minutes) I offer a limited number of concession spaces so please ask if cost is a barrier. Payment is by bank transfer before each session.
