Clinical Psychologist in Canterbury - offering individual therapy in person and online
Dr Carolyn Soper-Tilbrook
Welcome. I'm Carolyn, a Clinical Psychologist based in Canterbury, East Kent with nearly 20 years experience working in mental health services across the NHS.
Life feels heavy and complicated sometimes.
I'm really sorry if life has been feeling hard and painful for you.
When negative or stressful things happen in our lives, it can leave us feeling vulnerable, unable to relax and on guard, worrying about the future.
It can feel frightening when our inner world, or the communities around us, start to feel unsafe or unpredictable.
If you're having a tough time at the moment, there will be reasons for this that make sense, even if you cannot name them right now. It's OK. We're human and we were built with questioning, busy minds. Sometimes this can lead to creativity, problem solving and even masterpieces, but sometimes it can also lead to things feeling messy and overwhelming.
Individual Therapy sessions:
I offer a thorough assessment to explore your current difficulties and work with you to determine your goals for therapy.
I work with adults and older adults experiencing:
- anxiety
- depression
- low self-esteem
- self criticism
- stress
- loss
- trauma
- adjustment difficulties
- interpersonal difficulties
- Dementia
- Challenges related to ageing
- Challenges related to neurodivergence
- Challenges related to neurodivergence and ageing
I'm glad you found your way here and you are considering talking about what's on your mind and trying something that might help things shift or ease for you.
I hope whether you chose to work with me or not, that you find ways to ease your distress and can move towards living the life you want.
