About Carys

Carys Cole is a counsellor who uses attachment-based and client-centred ways of working to help people feel steadier in their relationships and daily life. She combines those approaches with cognitive behavioural and mindfulness techniques to support people through stress, anxiety, low mood and major life changes. Carys has six years of professional experience.

She holds a BACP credential, a Master of Science in Counselling Children and Young People and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology.

Background and approach

Her background includes roles in schools, counselling organisations and Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services, plus independent practice. Sessions are collaborative and practical. Carys listens carefully, helps people name what is happening, and tries out small changes together.

She uses simple exercises from mindfulness and cognitive work to reduce worry and improve day to day coping. She is comfortable talking about spiritual beliefs because of past work as a Christian counsellor. Carys also brings experience with issues such as attachment concerns, body image, substance problems, grief and family conflict.

Carys checks in regularly during therapy to see what is helping and what is not. This means the plan can change if something would work better. Her aim is to help people build confidence, manage strong emotions and find clearer ways forward.

Online support

Attachment-based work focuses on how past relationships shape current feelings and reactions; online sessions can use conversation and reflective exercises to rebuild more supported ways of relating. Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of the work, giving space to be listened to and understood while the counsellor follows your pace and priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps name unhelpful thinking patterns and tries out small behaviour changes, which adapt well to short practical tasks between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. Plans are reviewed regularly so techniques can be adjusted if something feels unhelpful or a different focus is needed.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be simpler when looking for a quick check-in. Live chat or text messaging suits brief updates, journalling between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options offer flexibility and can help maintain continuity when schedules change.
