Caitlin Gardner

I currently have sessions available on Tuesday throughout both daytime and evening. I also have some availability on other weekday evenings. 

My sessions are weekly, I am for this to be at the same time and day each week, however I can offer some flexibility on this. Please enquire for full availability information.

I primarily work psychodynamically which essentially means I am interested in exploring both your past and present experiences to understand how they are connected. I'm especially curious about any patterns you’ve observed in your life and the unconscious influences behind them. Through psychotherapy, we can explore how your past, including childhood experiences or trauma, has shaped your perspective and your relationships with others in the here and now.

Sessions are led by you, and you can choose to speak about whatever you would like. Often, simply having the time and space to talk or reflect allows deeper understanding to naturally emerge.

​At times I incorporate cognitive-behavioural, breathwork and grounding techniques into my practice if it is something that would be beneficial to the individual I am working with.

I adhere to the ethical standards set by my governing body, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Choosing the right therapist for you can feel daunting and everyone’s preferences are unique. To help, I offer a free 25-minute video consultation where you can ask any questions before deciding whether to work together.

​Following this if we decide to work together the initial session will be the full 50 minutes. During our first session I may ask questions about what prompted you to come to therapy, an overview of your family history and how you are feeling at present.
