Caroline McDougall – Specialisations

Caroline specializes in working with adults of all ages. She understands life issues can be challenging at all times in the human life-span. Vital to finding an internal strength and responding to life’s difficulties in a more adaptive way depends upon developing a strong sense of self. Many people travel blindly through life not realizing that the way they feel about themselves generally dates back to the way they are taught to think and feel about themselves during those formative years.

Caroline can help you to find that vital internal growth and change. This is done by a series of tasks and interventions which re-set the brain. By doing so the client will experience very different responses to triggers in one’s internal or external environment. These new responses will in time become natural and spontaneous. Thus there is a much greater ability to make wise choices for your present and future.
