Carol made me feel better every time I spoke with her. I always felt accepted, and that a weight had been lifted from my shoulders after speaking with her. She always makes my feelings feel valid, and she helps me to understand why I am feeling a certain way. I couldn’t recommend her enough

Welcome, my name is Carol Bendinelli. It takes courage to seek support, you don’t have to feel alone when life feels challenging or overwhelming. Together we can explore the causes of painful emotions. We will work together at your pace, to make positive changes in your life and relationships. I offer a confidential, warm, non-judgemental space where you will feel heard, valued, and accepted for who you are.
I am licensed in the UK with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I also have experience working with depression, life changes, abusive relationships, miscarriage, termination, chronic health issues, neuro-diversity, bullying.
Before training as a therapist, I worked in health, education and social care with vulnerable adults and children. I am passionate about working with people to help them reach their personal goals, express their individuality and enjoy life.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
