About Caroline
Caroline Lina Headland offers a warm, person-centred way of working grounded in six years of UK practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and depression. Caroline uses a gentle, respectful approach to help clients talk through relationship and parenting strains and to cope with trauma and abuse.
Her style emphasises listening first. She helps people name what feels hard and then shapes sessions around their priorities. That might mean talking through difficult memories, exploring patterns in relationships, or finding small steps to ease daily stress.
How Caroline works
Caroline also uses somatic techniques that bring attention to bodily sensations alongside conversation. This can help when emotions feel overwhelming or when stress shows up in the body as sleep problems, eating changes or anger. She supports those dealing with grief, addiction issues, intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions.
Additional focus areas include attachment difficulties, guilt and shame, self-love, social anxiety and women’s issues. Caroline is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.
Practical session formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that suits them. Caroline aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can take the first steps toward change.

How person-centred and somatic work translates online
Caroline blends person-centred counselling with somatic work. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathic reflection and helping people find their own answers. It is useful for worries about self-esteem, relationships and coping with life changes. Somatic therapy brings attention to bodily sensations alongside conversation. It can help when anxiety, sleep or eating issues show up in the body and when emotions feel stuck.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will explore a person’s goals, preferences and what feels most helpful in early sessions. If needed, different techniques can be tried and adjusted so the work fits the client’s needs over time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face dialogue for in-depth sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or quick communication between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and busy days, while still working with registered or accredited professionals.
