About Carryn
Carryn Williams is a counsellor who welcomes people who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or simply not themselves. She supports individuals dealing with stress, low mood, relationship worries, and parenting strains. Carryn uses a calm, non-judgemental manner and invites clients to start from whatever they are able to bring to sessions.
Her approach is practical and relationship-focused. She helps people name what they are feeling and untangle confusing thoughts. Work often focuses on improving communication, managing stress, and rebuilding confidence after loss or difficult changes.
Background and approach
Carryn draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape patterns in relationships and personal choices. She also uses client-centred methods that centre the client’s own perspective, and hypnotherapy for people who find guided relaxation or imagery helpful in making changes.
With six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, she works in a way that aims to make therapy straightforward and understandable. Carryn holds BACP registration, which is listed as a credential. Sessions can address a wide range of concerns including addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, body image, attachment and blended family challenges.
Carryn supports people through life transitions such as separation, bereavement, and caregiving stress. People who choose to work with her are offered a collaborative process where goals are agreed together and adjusted as progress is made.

Online support
How her approaches work online
Carryn uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and work with their emotions, especially where patterns in relationships or personal reactions cause distress. EFT looks at how feelings shape behaviour and helps people try new ways of responding to improve connection and wellbeing.She also works in a client-centred way, which means sessions follow the client’s experience and pace. That approach focuses on listening, understanding and helping people find their own answers. Where useful, hypnotherapy is offered as a tool for guided relaxation and imagery to support change and reduce stress.
Choosing the right method is treated as a team effort. Carryn will talk through options, try different techniques and adapt plans to fit a person’s goals and comfort. Clients and the therapist decide together which approaches suit each stage of work.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth, and text or live chat can be a shorter check-in or fit around work and family life. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent when schedules are busy or when travelling is difficult.
