I’m Carla Boulton, a Professional Accredited Counsellor, Coach and Supervisor. I partner with organisations of all sizes to provide confidential counselling, coaching and supervision. Employees who feel listened to and supported bring their best self to work and thrive at home.

Counselling for your employees

Perhaps you’ve noticed someone in your team struggling. It might be relationship stress, bereavement, health issues, or you may simply sense that something isn’t right.

Seeing me is always a choice, never something to be instructed. But offering support as an option can be a lifeline. Imagine your employees knowing they had a confidential, non-biased professional to turn to, whether as a one-off session or ongoing support.

Everything we discuss is confidential. I don’t report back to employers, though I may encourage helpful dialogue between employee and employer if it could bolster progress.

Supervision for your employees (or for you)

Not every staff member needs counselling. Those in challenging, people-focused roles benefit greatly from supervision: a safe, structured space to reflect on their work, manage pressures and strengthen resilience.

Providing supervision shows your employees that you value them. It’s also a key way to protect their wellbeing and sustain a safe, supportive workplace.

Counselling for employers

Running a business or managing a team isn’t without its challenges. At times, the weight of responsibility can feel overwhelming. You’re human too, and you deserve support.

I offer a confidential time to offload and explore what’s going on. Sometimes there are things you can’t share at home; that’s when talking to a professional makes all the difference. Together, we can find a way forward and help you feel clearer and more confident about the future.

Paying for sessions

If your employer is willing to pay for your sessions, I am happy to invoice them. I also work with clients directly or via agencies offering Access to Work support. See fees.

In clients’ words

Gentle, pressure-free support.

“I found my experience of counselling with Carla a gentle process with no feelings of pressure which is just what I needed. I could be myself. I would certainly return in the future if I needed help.”

“It normally takes me a while to trust people and open up. However, even in my first session with Carla, I found myself discussing things with the comfort level of long-time, trusted friends. Her genuine and caring nature made all the difference. I highly recommend Carla’s services and thank her for helping me move forward.”

Getting started

A gentle, practical start.

  1. A free 15-minute call

    We begin with a short conversation by phone, WhatsApp or video. You can ask questions, share a little about what brings you here, and get a sense of whether we’re a good fit.

  2. Finding our starting point

    In our first session we’ll talk about what you’re hoping for, how you’d like to work, and what feels important to you. You choose what to share.

  3. A rhythm that works for you

    Some people choose a few sessions; others find ongoing support helpful over months or years. We’ll review together, at a pace that feels right for you.
