About Clear Spring Therapy
Hello, I am Caroline Lower, a Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist, Chronic Pain Therapist, and Pain Reprocessing Therapist, with over 30 years’ experience in palliative care, including CEO of Hospice services..
I began my career as a nurse, and I also bring personal experience of living with chronic pain. I understand how persistent pain can diminish confidence, drain resilience and quietly erode hope.
My work combines 4 main approaches:
- Pain Reprocessing Therapy which retrains the brain to stop generating the sensation of pain and move out of chronic stress reactions
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address fear, beliefs and regain healthy emotional responses
- Hypnotherapy to calm the nervous system and embed positive intentions and habits
- Body and somatic awareness to rebuild trust in the body and allow the body to heal
Sessions are calm, collaborative and practical. There is no pressure to “push through” pain or revisit distressing memories. The focus is on cultivating safety and helping you take control again.
‘Stepping Stones’ towards resilience and freedom
The programme, typically in blocks of 8 sessions, is designed around core elements which may be covered in no particular order. It is designed to take you through the stages of brain training and provide you with techniques which will assist you on your journey. These are some of the areas that are included.
A New Perspective on Pain
Retraining the Brain
New Techniques
Restorative Sleep
Breaking High Alert Habits
Fear & Stress Amplify Pain
Joy and Resilience
