When I was suffering with depression and anxiety Caroline was so empathetic and understanding, patiently listening to me, often with me breaking down into tears.
With the homework that she gave me to do and with her ongoing support, we worked together to try and determine the root causes of my problems. By trying to understand the authentic me, and putting me into a positive frame of mind, Caroline has really guided me with ways of managing the things that upset me and triggered my anxiety. I don’t think I could have come out of this situation without her help and the tools she provided me with to take back control of my life.
