Caroline Wakelin

MC, RCC

I am a registered clinical counsellor with a Master of Counselling degree and over 20 years of experience in the helping profession. I am passionate about supporting clients to heal the relationship they have with themselves and others. I use evidence-based therapy techniques to help you build awareness, reduce emotional suffering, and engage in more effective behaviour patterns. I have training in ACT, Trauma-Focused ACT, Gottman Method Couples Therapy Level 1, EFT and IFS. My approach is attachment-based, trauma-informed, client-centred, and anti-oppressive. I also draw extensively on the wisdom of mindfulness, self-compassion, and the mind/body connection. I am LGBTQ2S+ friendly and welcome all genders and cultures to my practice. If you are hurting from heartbreak, feeling stuck in your relationship or simply want to calm anxious thoughts and live with more ease and joy, I want to help.
