About Caroline Brown Therapy


I specialise in treating anxiety in all its forms, including OCD and IBS. I work every week at the Little Escape in Crystal Palace.

If you want to be able to express your opionion, disagree with people or give a presentation without any feelings of awkwardness, then work with me for just a few sessions and see the difference. If you are finding it hard to get on a plane, go into school or college, then working with me will empower you to do things you want to do and need to do. If you are restricting your life and limiting where you go because you are worried that something bad might happen, then I can help. If your head is full of distressing and horrible thoughts, then I have approaches which have helped people like you.

Hypnotherapy is fast, effective and safe. Just 4-6 sessions is usually enough to give you skills that can last a lifetime.

Read my reviews and see how my approach could work for you.

Hypnosis is an intriguing and empowering experience. Integrating hypnosis into the wide range of cognitive and behavioural therapies (CBT) enhances the beneficial effects and speeds your progress along.

Combining cognitive behavioural therapy with hypnosis has been shown to enhance the beneficial effects of therapy and to speed it along. CBT is a bundle of lots of different therapy approaches that have been shown to work. I have a big toolkit of CBT approaches and at least one of them is going to work for you.

My first time with Caroline. Was very pleasant , comfortable and friendly. Which she gave me very good advice and feedback on my ideas. Could not fault caroline at all very friendly and understanding.

After not having therapy for a while, I arranged an appointment with Caroline as I'd not been feeling great for a few weeks. Caroline is very easy to open up to and extremely knowledgeable. She also gave me a number of really useful tips like trying to achieve little goals each day, keeping busy and also surrounding myself with friends. This has been really helpful. Caroline gave me a meditation recording about uncertainty that was brilliant. Not only was it very relaxing but it also spoke such sense. I will definitely arrange another appointment with Caroline soon.

Caroline is somebody who I’ve had the pleasure to work with for some time now. I appreciate her openness and wisdom when supporting me. Caroline embodies The moral and ethical working practices that only comes with being an experienced hypnotherapist. Caroline is warm and understanding and I’m grateful to be working with her.

My supervision could not be provided by a more friendly, to the point, experienced and thoughtful therapist. Caroline is very highly regarded and very highly recommended. Thank you Caroline.

I have been working with Caroline recently and she is a pleasure to work with, very knowledgeable. I feel very relaxed and able to ask questions and I feel I know exactly what she is talking about.

If you struggle with OCD or anxiety, a single session with Caroline would be worth more than a series with another therapist. Caroline’s knowledge of OCD is so thorough, which is something that is incredibly hard to find in a therapist. It is extremely comforting to know that there is someone who understands the type of OCD I have, which is often poorly recognised; if you have struggled to find a therapist who understands your experience, or you are constantly seeking reassurance and never finding a conclusion, reach out to Caroline. You won’t regret it. Thank you for everything, always, Caroline :).

I'm so glad that I came across Caroline through reading Lucy Black's ebook 'It needs to be impossible - The mystery of of certainty and how I beat OCD with confidence'. Like Lucy, my OCD mainly manifests itself in the form of 'false memories'. Caroline has years of experience of treating people with OCD and has an excellent understanding of the tools that are required for recovery. I can't recommend her enough!
Response : Thank you very much for your review, Andrew. I worked with Lucy in 2015 and her review on Freeindex is dated 16 March 2016. OCD is a complex anxiety condition, but it does respond well to therapy. Over the years I have helped a lot of clients find effective approaches that work for them personally, so that they regain control over this very distressing condition.

This was my review 4 years ago. It's amazing to look back and realise that after only a few hypnotherapy sessions, I still not only have no difficulty with public speaking, but I actually now enjoy it. This is from a person who needed beta blockers to get myself in the room. I have no idea how it works, but it does. And it lasts. So grateful to Caroline.

Caroline was very good as she got to the root of my problem and has discussed solutions to help resolve them. She has a very clear and positive attitude which rubs off on her clients and puts you in the right frame of mind to address your problems.

Caroline was immediately understanding of my OCD issues and was able to offer constructive therapeutic strategies that helped me to gain clarity and see hope for the future. She made time to accommodate appointments at short notice and was very approachable throughout. I was able to reposition my thinking and see that things could get better again. I would have no hesitation in working with Caroline again in future and it was reassuring to see that she had worked with someone experiencing the same Cheating OCD subtype as me previously.

Over the past 3 to 4 years I have struggled with panic attacks and anxiety. I had tried a few methods to help deal these issues including being prescribed anti anxiety medication by my GP as well as a few CBT classes however nothing seemed to work for me. Caroline came very highly recommended to me from a friend who had received excellent treatment from her in the past and although I was a little hesitant and anxious to let someone in, and to put myself out there I felt that I had nothing to lose and decided to seek assistance. I have worked with Caroline in two separate occasions using including a combination of CBT and hypnotherapy. During her time in Glasgow we had around 5 or 6 sessions which benefited me massively. I was able to deal with a lot of underlying problems in a safe place where Caroline provided me with the tools to allow me to manage my feelings which resulted in me feeling more positive, more productive and completely stopped my panic attacks to the point where I felt I no longer required treatment. Recently I have required a little assistance and due to my positive experience previously with Caroline I decided to reach out and book a session. Caroline is working from London now and I am based in Glasgow so I decided to use her online video conference service and I have to say I think it’s excellent. You can book a time that is convenient for you from the comfort of your own home and still receive the same level of expertise and quality of care. I am now in session 3 and making good progress. I cannot thank Caroline enough she has been amazing and can’t recommend her enough!Thank you :).Moreexpand_more

I have worked through my anxiety and a lot of mental barriers since first seeing Caroline at 19. Now turning 25, I can honestly say this wouldn’t have been possible without her practical and effective approaches to overcoming / accepting intrusive thoughts. Through her techniques and advice I have been able to develop both personally and professionally, to the benefit of my relationships and own well-being. I could not recommend or rate her services highly enough.
Erin Kelly

Caroline was really able to help me through a particular moment of difficulty in my career a few years ago. She gave good sound advice, offered practical coping techniques and was a kind listener. She put me at my ease; she has both a sympathetic demeanour and is thorough in her approach. With Caroline's support I got past the immediate problems and into a stronger professional position. I really enjoyed working with Caroline and have recommended her numerous times.
Response : I am delighted to hear that our work together has delivered such good results for you, and so long lasting, too. Thank you very much for letting me know.

I previously attended Therapy Sessions with Caroline to seek help for problems sleeping. I immediately felt at peace in the comfortable surroundings, the therapy room gives off a very calming vibe. I felt completely at ease in Caroline’s company. The hypnosis itself was for me truly wonderful. Afterwards I felt completely grounded. Caroline recommended Sleep Hypnosis Recordings and for the first time in years I slept like a baby! I’d highly recommend Caroline to anyone who like me has problems sleeping.
Response : Sleep is so important for our wellbeing. When asleep, our brain memorises and processes information. Our body clears toxins and repairs itself, allowing us to function properly when awake. I am really pleased to have been able to help you get back to good and refreshing sleep. Even a short period of poor or interrupted sleep has a significant impact on how well we cope. We are more likely to feel anxious if we sleep badly, and worry that we will never sleep well again. Some of the things we do to try to get enough sleep have the opposite effect. Staying in bed to try to catch up on lost sleep, for instance, means we lose our sleep-wake cycle. Our bodies get confused just like with jet lag. But recovery can be surprisingly fast. As you noticed, Pamela, hypnotherapy is a most enjoyable and empowering way to get back to sleeping well.Moreexpand_more

Caroline has facilitated a really big improvement in my mental health over only a small number of sessions - I was amazed by how quickly I felt better. Her methods have been very effective for me and unlike other courses of therapy I've had, I haven't been encouraged to dwell on anything negative from the past or even to dissect my current symptoms which has turned out to be a much better approach for me. Of course recovery is a journey and I'm still working towards it, but now I have hope (and evidence) that getting there is possible.

Caroline has been helping me with some OCD issues this year, particularly relating to my health, but our sessions expanded out into other areas like my career. From the first appointment, Caroline wasted no time in getting to the root of my issues, helping me in understanding how these self - limiting beliefs and habits were formed and providing a roadmap to solving them myself. If you are looking for a magic pill or appointment to solve your issues, then you won't find that anywhere. But if you are looking for someone to show you how to understand your thoughts, beliefs and behavioural patterns and work on them for a happier, healthier future, I can't recommend Caroline enough. She is a consummate professional, immensely knowledgable and life - changing.

I needed help s few years ago and I discovered Caroline online I was a bit scared to call at first as I was having a real trouble with my thoughts but it was the best thing I ever done as soon as I met Caroline I thought she was lovely and made me feel very comfortable which was really important at the time after each session I was coming out feeling alot better and my OCD was getting managed alot better I only needed 4sessions at the time and my life completely changed as I started to feel like my old self again and could finally start sleeping better and getting my appetite back I couldn't recommend Caroline enough she is amazing.
