Talking Therapy
Carly is a specialist therapist in drug and alcohol addiction, offering one-to-one, compassionate support for those ready to take the first step towards lasting change. Working independently from her quiet home office or her therapy space in the heart of Bournemouth, Carly provides a safe, private and relaxed environment for recovery to begin.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, Carly tailors each session to meet you where you are in your journey. Using evidence-based techniques that support both the mind and body, she works with you to understand the roots of addiction and build a clear, manageable path forward.
Down-to-Earth, Real Support
Carly understands how important it is to feel at ease during therapy. That’s why she offers a calm, confidential space, whether you prefer the welcoming feel of a home-based setting or the convenience of a central Bournemouth location. Her sessions are flexible, allowing you to fit therapy into your life without added pressure or stress.
There’s no big clinical setting, no rotating team; just consistent, personal support from someone who genuinely cares and takes the time to understand your story.
With a focus on treating the whole person, Carly blends tried-and-tested psychological approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care with a warm, down-to-earth style. Whether you’re struggling with alcohol, drugs, or both, her aim is to help you not only recover but feel stronger, more self-aware, and equipped for long-term change.
Carly believes that understanding how addiction affects the brain is key to recovery. In sessions, she helps you make sense of what’s been happening beneath the surface and gives you the tools to move forward confidently.
Carly knows recovery doesn’t end after a few sessions. That’s why she offers flexible aftercare and check-ins, so you’re supported even as life moves forward. Whether that’s returning for the occasional session, a quick catch-up, or a new phase of deeper work, Carly remains in your corner for the long haul.
