Welcome to thecornerrooms.life

Hi, my name is Carol. Firstly, thank you for taking the time to visit the Corner Rooms site. Whether you are actively looking for support or just having a look, I really appreciate you taking a moment to explore this space. Reaching out (or even thinking about it) takes courage, and I want to acknowledge that.

As a predominantly person-centred counsellor, I believe that you are the expert in your own life. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. However, at times I also draw on additional approaches to meet my client’s needs in a flexible, responsive way.

I’m a qualified counsellor (BACP) 

I have spent over 10 years working in social care, supporting children, families, carers, and care leavers through some of life's most difficult times. During this time, I have had the privilege of working alongside people from many different backgrounds, cultures, and life experiences. It was through this work that I felt inspired to train as a therapeutic counsellor.

Although everyone's journey is unique, here are some of the areas I have previously and often supported with:

· Stress

· Anxiety

· Menopause

· Abuse

· Trauma

· Grief and loss

· Relationships and attachments

· Identity and self-exploration

· Life transitions

· Family dynamics

· Confidence and self-worth

· Intrusive thoughts or overwhelming feelings

As a Registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), I follow their Ethical Framework to ensure our sessions are safe, respectful, and professional.

I am registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and conform to GDPR

Additional information

Counselling sessions are available on a one-to-one basis for those aged 18 and above, with a flexible approach designed to fit around what works best for you. I offer:

· Online - from the comfort of your own home

· By telephone - a flexible option if you prefer voice-only support

· Face to face - at a welcoming location in Brighouse

Counselling sessions normally last for 1 hour and are offered on a weekly or fortnightly basis, depending on what feels most supportive for you.

The standard fee is £40 per session.

If you are interested in counselling and would like to see how it feels to talk with me, I offer a free 15-minute telephone call. This gives us a chance to connect, discuss what you are looking for, and answer any questions you may have.
