Carol Gordon , BACP

Carol Gordon is a Pluralistic Counsellor, Rapid Transformational Therapist (RTT), and Life Purpose Coach based in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. She combines several therapeutic methods so each session is tailored to the individual's needs and preferences, drawing on a flexible, client-focused framework to support personal change and growth.

With four years of experience and BACP listed as a credential, Carol works with people facing a range of challenges including ADHD-related difficulties such as procrastination and organisation, sleep problems, anxiety, and career-related stress. She blends Person Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and hypnotherapy to help clients develop practical strategies, improve coping skills, and explore underlying patterns that affect wellbeing.

Known for a non-judgmental, caring, and compassionate manner, Carol respects each person’s uniqueness and adapts her approach to match different needs. She encourages people to take that first step toward change, noting that small beginnings can lead to more fulfilling, balanced lives. If a client is ready to pursue growth and become the best version of themselves, Carol invites them to get in touch to begin the process.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support

Carol uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Client-Centred Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to guide online work. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and navigating life changes. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a warm, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s experience leads the process - this approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and emotional processing. CBT offers practical tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and to build more effective coping strategies for issues such as insomnia, low mood, and anxiety.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey. Carol collaborates with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and needs, adjusting methods as progress unfolds so the work remains relevant and responsive.

Online therapy with Carol is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and preferences. These remote options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists without needing to travel, helping clients fit therapy into busy or changing lives.
