Carolyn Crawshaw

I currently have in-person availability in St Albans on Fridays and in Harpenden on Wednesday afternoons and Friday mornings.

I  have online availability at other times.

I am an empathic and experienced counsellor and have worked alongside clients from a wide range of backgrounds, with a variety of concerns and difficulties, including depression, anxiety, stress, anger, relationship challenges, and work-related issues.

I recognize the courage it takes to seek help, whether prompted by recent events or a lingering discomfort you may have endured over many years.

Everyone’s experience is unique and I aim to work together with you to explore and reflect on what is happening or has happened, in your life, moving towards a possibility for change.

I offer weekly sessions in a warm, non-judgmental, and confidential space, where you can feel safe to express your thoughts and feelings. I also offer on line sessions.

My background training is in psychodynamic counselling.

I adhere to the highest standards of professionalism and ethics as a registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP).

I completed a five-year-long BACP-accredited training with a reputable counselling service gaining an Advanced Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling. I continue to update my learning with professional development training including working towards an MSc in The Psychology and Neuroscience of Mental Health from Kings College London.

As well as my private practice in both Harpenden and St Albans, I work with clients referred through the NHS and other well-being services in my roles as an assessment counsellor and counsellor with a local mental health charity.

I also tutor trainee counsellors on a Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling programme. 

I offer an initial free 15-minute telephone consultation where I can briefly describe my practice and you can ask questions.

If you are happy to proceed, I will then offer you a 50 minute assessment consultation, during which we will think together about some of your reasons for coming to counselling. This session will be face-to-face or on line and will cost £60

If you and I agree that we are happy to proceed then we will agree the terms of our contract. 

My therapy hours are on Wednesdays and Fridays in Harpenden or St Albans.

I can also offer availability at other times for telephone or video counselling.

Please e mail me for up to date availability. 

I am an empathic, experienced counsellor and have worked alongside clients with a variety of concerns and difficulties, including relationship or work related challenges which bring anxiety, stress, or symptoms of depression. These feelings may have been present for many years,  sometimes since childhood. We can find ways to cope, but sometimes these coping mechanisms don’t work so well.

It takes courage to seek help and everyone’s experience is unique.
