About Carys
Carys Cole is a counsellor who works with people facing anxiety and stress. She uses practical talking work to help with relationships, low self-esteem, depression and addiction. Carys has six years of practice and holds BACP as a professional credential.
She trained in counselling for children and young people and also has a BSc in Psychology. That background means she can explain things in simple terms and tailor sessions to different ages and situations.
Background and approach
Her past roles include work in schools, counselling organisations and child and adolescent mental health services. Carys draws on several approaches rather than one single method. She mixes attachment-focused thinking, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas, emotionally focused techniques and mindfulness.
This lets her shift strategy if something is not helping. In sessions she listens first, then works with each person to set clear, realistic goals. She checks progress often and adjusts the plan when needed.
Conversations can include exploring beliefs, practicing new ways of thinking, and trying short exercises between meetings. She is comfortable discussing spiritual or faith concerns, having experience that includes Christian counselling. Sessions are offered online and by phone, live chat or messaging, making it possible to fit therapy around school, work and family life.
Approach-focused online therapy that fits your life
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and close connections. It can help when worries about abandonment, trust or attachment patterns get in the way of daily life. Client-Centred Therapy centres on careful listening and acceptance, giving people space to find their own solutions and build self-esteem through steady support. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and then practices small changes that reduce anxiety and low mood. Carys will work with each person to decide which approach, or mix of approaches, feels right. That choice is collaborative - goals, pace and methods are discussed together and revisited as things change. The aim is to find practical ways forward that match the person's needs and preferences. Online therapy can make it easier to get ongoing support. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions are useful for quicker check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit short updates, reflective notes or people who prefer writing. These options give flexibility to schedule sessions around work, school and family commitments, and to use different formats as needs evolve.Questions people ask
