Caroline Lowden

Hi, I’m Caroline (she/her). I’m a psychosexual and relationship therapist, and I trained as a pluralistic therapist, which means I don’t work from a single fixed model of what therapy “should” look like. Instead, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches and adapt them to you: your history, your circumstances, and what you actually need from our work together, rather than fitting you into a predetermined process. This tends to mean sessions feel less like following a script, and more like a genuine, evolving conversation.

I specialise in helping people who are neurodiverse, non-monogamous, gender diverse, kinky, or navigating life in bodies that are stigmatised. I studied with a gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity (GSRD) speciality, and this has been broadened with my experience working within NHS sexual health & gender services. However, this specialism doesn\'t define who I see. I work with anyone facing difficulties in their sex or relational lives.

I have 15 years experience supporting teens and young adults who have suffered sexual trauma, mental health problems, and experienced the care system. My work with refugees, people experiencing homelessness, drug and alcohol problems, migration, and poverty trauma, has shaped who I am as a therapist. Some of the hardest things to talk about are the things that matter most -our relationships, our sense of self, our sexual selves, our intimate lives. Corazón Therapy offers a considered, confidential space to work through these, at your own pace, without judgement. I work online and in person in Newcastle Upon Tyne, and if you’d like a free 15 minute consultation to discuss how we might work together I’d love to hear from you.
