About Caroline
I am the author of LIVING WITH DEPRESSION – How To Cope When Your Partner is Depressed. I am also a hypnotherapist and life coach. This is what I tell people:

"Living with a partner who is depressed can be so lonely. When my life partner of twenty years became depressed – it was such a shock. I was worried and confused, and just wanted to know what to expect, and what to do for the best. I needed advice and support, but I couldn't find the right kind quickly enough. I began to realise that there must be millions of people going through a similar experience, and so, as I learnt how to cope, I decided to write a book to help others. Then I set up My Partner is Depressed, and this dedicated website. I believe passionately that everyone would benefit from knowing something about depression and also anxiety, because they are closely linked and have an impact on so many people's lives."
My life and work...
... has spanned areas as diverse as theatre, television, education and the criminal justice system. I spent many years running groups and one-to-one therapy sessions with a range of clients before becoming a hypnotherapist eight years ago. I've run workshops in the UK and America, and in all I have over 25 years experience of helping people to move forward in their lives.
I contribute frequently to the media
I'm often asked for advice about depression, anxiety and confidence issues, and I've been interviewed by many newspapers, magazines, specialist health publications and numerous BBC Local radio shows. I've written features for a range of publications and magazines, including SHE, the Sunday Express, and a range of specialist health publications. In the past I was Agony Aunt for A Single Step, the magazine for the supporters of the Depression Alliance, and also for the British Journal of Healthcare Assistants.
