Our Story

Welcome to Zen Counselling Services, founded by Cara Bowler, a dedicated professional Mental Health Health Therapist and Clinical Supervisor, whose passion for helping others is at the heart of everything we do. Our story is one of compassion, commitment, and the unwavering belief in the potential of every individual to lead a fulfilled and content life.

At Zen Counselling Services, we understand that life can present various challenges and difficulties. During these times, having the support of an impartial listener can make a significant difference. Cara Bowler's mission is to provide a safe and confidential environment where clients can embark on their journey of healing and personal growth.

Cara Bowlers Mission

Cara's approach to counselling is deeply rooted in the belief that the foundation of therapeutic healing lies in establishing a trustworthy and safe relationship. She is committed to creating an individualised approach to counselling and supervision, tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. Cara understands that building trust is a significant step in the therapeutic process, and she places great importance on this aspect to ensure meaningful progress.

Therapists differ in their approaches, and Cara acknowledges this diversity while adhering to strict ethical guidelines. She encourages clients to stay curious and ask questions to ensure they find the most suitable professional to meet their specific needs. To facilitate this process, Cara offers a reduced fee for an initial session, allowing clients to assess compatibility and find the best possible support.

Our Philosophy

At Zen Counselling Services, we believe that private therapy offers the invaluable benefit of freedom in choosing your therapist. This freedom allows clients to find a therapist with whom they feel a genuine connection, rather than being assigned one. Cara urges clients to trust their intuition and instincts when selecting a therapist or supervisor, ensuring they receive the most effective and personalised support.
