Caroline Naish

Thank you for contacting me about counselling. I work 10:00 - 4:00 Tues, Weds and Thurs. Please leave me a message and I will reply within my next working day -- Caroline. 

I am a psychodynamic counsellor who originally trained at Oxford University with over 20 years of clinical experience. I have worked in the private sector, as well as within a university setting, and in the NHS.

Counselling provides the opportunity to think through the things that are causing distress, with an impartial, trained professional uninvolved in any other area of your life.

With the emphasis on confidentiality, support and understanding, I help to identify links between present concerns and problems, and relationships and conflicts in your past. I listen non-judgementally to any issues you want to discuss and together we think about how you deal with life.

Becoming more self aware offers a freedom to choose whether and how to change. I also offer support for what cannot change.

My practice is in a quiet residential area, close to Newbury station and the town centre. There is plenty of free on-street parking. 

I offer 50 minute sessions, in both long-term or short-term therapy, in person at £62, or via Zoom at £65 per session. The initial session in both cases is 80 minutes long, at £80, to establish whether we can work together. During this you can ask questions about my therapy practice and the process itself. 

If we agree to continue I will provide you with a contract and my GDPR statement covering all aspects of data protection.
