Carole Barbier, BACP, NCPS

Carole Barbier is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She has ten years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, anger and low self-esteem.

Carole works with people who are facing life changes, mood difficulties such as depression or bipolar challenges, and neurodiversity-related concerns including ADHD. She also supports those dealing with adoption or foster care issues, attachment difficulties, blended family tensions, separation and divorce, fertility and pregnancy-related concerns, immigration-related stress and postpartum depression.

Her approach treats the client as the expert in their own story and looks for strengths to draw on when tackling difficult feelings. Sessions are practical and conversational. Carole aims to help clients notice patterns that keep problems going and to try small, doable changes between sessions.

Carole has supported people with workplace stress, self-harm thoughts, young adult issues and grief. She also addresses abandonment worries and family problems that affect day-to-day life. People who prefer to work through anger or manage reactive responses can bring those concerns to sessions.
