About Carys
Carys Cole is a counsellor who uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other person-centred approaches. She draws on six years of practice to help people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. Carys writes plainly and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and practical from the first meeting.
She brings together Attachment-Based, Client-Centred and Cognitive Behavioural ideas to shape each session. That means conversations focus on feelings, patterns in relationships, and small changes people can try between meetings.
Background and approach
She also uses mindfulness techniques to help with overwhelm and intrusive thoughts. Carys has a BACP credential and a background in psychology and working across multiple counselling settings. Her experience includes work with people affected by trauma and abuse, addictions, grief and family problems.
She is comfortable discussing spiritual or faith perspectives when that is important to the person seeking support. In sessions she checks in often about progress and what is helpful. This keeps the work responsive and practical.
She aims to help people build confidence, improve communication and find clearer ways to cope with life changes. Therapy can take different forms depending on the issue and the person. Carys will collaborate to shape an approach that fits each person’s goals, whether that means talking through attachment patterns, using CBT-style strategies, or practising mindfulness skills between meetings.

Online support
How emotion-focused and attachment work translates online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people recognise and work with strong emotions in relationships and personal difficulties. It focuses on identifying feelings, understanding why they happen, and changing how people respond to those feelings to reduce distress.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current responses to stress and connection. It can help people notice repeated interaction styles and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more effective.
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor offers a non-judgemental, listening space and follows the client’s pace, which can be especially useful when dealing with grief, identity questions or self-esteem work.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and practical needs, and then adapt methods together. That means sessions can combine emotion-focused exploration, attachment insight and practical CBT-style tasks when helpful.
Online therapy here can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or need less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options make it easier to get regular support around work, family and other commitments.
