About Caroline
Caroline Macrory is a counsellor registered with NCPS in the United Kingdom and has 15 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family problems, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns. She also supports people dealing with mood disorders, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and life changes.
Her approach is practical and conversational. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Sessions focus on straightforward strategies to manage worry, low mood, sleeping problems and anger, and on small experiments to test new ways of coping.
Caroline often helps people clarify priorities around work, money and caring roles. She also addresses issues that come up around adoption and foster care, blended families, autism and attachment concerns. For people facing addiction, hoarding or dissociation she combines motivational interviewing ideas with emotion-focused work to support change.
Clients can expect a collaborative style that explains options and practices between sessions. The focus is on practical steps such as breaking tasks into manageable pieces, testing out different behaviours, and developing routines for sleep and mood. Caroline accepts international clients and conducts work in English.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How her main approaches translate to online work
Caroline commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and routines. CBT focuses on practical steps such as structured problem lists, behavioural experiments and simple mood or sleep plans to test what works for everyday life.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which emphasises noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that align with what matters. That approach can help when people are stuck in avoidance or struggle with painful feelings. Attachment-based ideas are used to understand patterns in close relationships and to make different choices around intimacy and caregiving.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Caroline will discuss options with each person and agree a plan based on goals, preferences and what is most likely to help. The process is collaborative and practical, with agreed tasks to try between sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful because they fit around work and caring responsibilities, reduce travel time, and make it easier to schedule short check-ins or regular weekly meetings. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises for online meetings and agree ways to review progress that suit everyday life.
