About Carryn
Carryn Williams is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has six years of professional experience and works with people in the United Kingdom on stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, low self esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and grief.
She meets people who feel overwhelmed or not quite themselves and helps them make sense of those feelings. She asks few expectations at first; clients do not need a diagnosis or a plan. Sessions focus on untangling thoughts and feelings so people can notice small changes that matter in daily life.
Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and hypnotherapy. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the conversation centred on the person’s own concerns and pace. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at emotions beneath relationship patterns and communication. Hypnotherapy can be used to support change through guided relaxation and focused attention.
Carryn works in a straightforward and practical way. She helps people talk through immediate problems like sleeping, coping with life changes, or substance use, and longer-standing issues such as attachment, abandonment or body image. She also supports people dealing with blended family stresses, caregiving strain and cancer-related concerns.
Sessions are conducted in English. Carryn does not take international clients. To start, people use the site’s matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the booking flow.
How Carryn uses therapy approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client’s concerns and pace. Online sessions using this approach tend to be conversational and start from what feels most pressing for the person. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at feelings that drive relationship patterns and communication. Online EFT work helps people notice and name emotions and try different ways of responding. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to support change and can be used for issues such as sleep, anxiety or habit change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss the options with the client and choose methods that fit the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as the work progresses.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking so you know how sessions will be held. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around work breaks, or letting someone choose a quieter room rather than a long commute. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help people keep therapy consistent with everyday routines.
