Caragh Bailie

Integrative Therapist

Contact

Hi, I'm Caragh, a BACP registered therapist with PGDip in Integrative Counselling and Coaching. I have over 4 years of counselling experience, working with individuals with eating disorders, body dysmorphia, self-esteem and self-worth issues, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, loss and more. My integrative approach to therapy enables me to draw upon a range of approaches, mirroring the needs and wants of individual clients. I incorporate elements of Person-Centred Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, CBT and Solution-Focussed Therapy.

Practice and approach

I have also found that incorporating coaching techniques into my practice can be valuable in offering client's insight into their motivations and choices. I have a special interest in working with body-image issues, eating disorders, self-esteem and confidence. Now 37 years old with a young son, I have experienced overcoming eating disorders, navigating anxiety, depression and low-self worth in a professional work environment. My personal experience has taught me that exploring the roots of our development of self-image and self-worth can be totally transformational in releasing us from the grasp of unhelpful thought patterns. I have had decades of trial and error in finding balance and making choices which support my well-being and healing. Through this, I recognise that personal healing in ongoing and I am able to relate to the challenges of others whilst recognising that no 2 experiences are the same.
