About Caroline

Caroline Macrory is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has 15 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with adults who want clearer thinking around stress, anxiety, anger and relationship strains. Her focus includes parenting concerns, grief, mood issues and life changes.

Caroline helps people talk through what is happening in their day-to-day life. She keeps language straightforward and practical. Sessions are aimed at noticing patterns, finding small shifts and trying things that feel manageable.

Her background includes work with trauma and abuse, addiction, and family problems. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome. Caroline has experience with separation, caregiver stress, hoarding and financial strain.

She draws on a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That means sessions may include looking at unhelpful thoughts, paying attention to emotions, and working on what matters most to the person in front of her.

Caroline offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and are managed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the online matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session.

How sessions work

Approaches used and how online sessions can fit

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, which can be useful for anger that feels overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviours that keep problems going. Work might include spotting automatic thoughts, testing them and trying different responses in everyday situations to reduce reactive responses.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) pays attention to feelings and the ways they shape relationships. This approach can help people understand what sits under anger and how to communicate needs more clearly.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Caroline will collaborate with clients to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. That discussion usually happens in early sessions and can change as work progresses.

Session formats are not detailed in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a break, or avoiding travel time. They also allow people to try different session rhythms while keeping therapy practical and focused on daily life.
