About Carole
Carole Davies is a counsellor who focuses on supporting people through major life changes. She works with adults facing bereavement, relationship breakdown, career shifts and other transitions that can leave someone feeling low, anxious or unsure of the next step. Her approach aims to restore motivation and a sense of purpose.
Carole helps people rebuild their lives by looking at the past, finding small sources of joy now, and planning hopeful steps for the future.
Background and approach
She has experience in addiction recovery and supports people moving into sobriety as they relearn daily routines and self‑belief. She holds BACP and NCPS accreditation and has practised for five years. Carole describes her work as non‑directive and humanistic, so sessions tend to follow what matters most to the person in the room.
That can mean talking things through, noticing unhelpful patterns, or trying small, practical changes between sessions. People often come to her for help with anxiety, low self‑esteem, grief, parenting concerns, relationship strain or coping with stress. She also has wider experience with issues such as ADHD, eating concerns, trauma and compassion fatigue.
Carole aims to offer a warm, non‑judgemental space where clients feel heard and accepted. If someone is ready to take steps towards change she supports them to set realistic goals and discover what feels possible next.

Practical therapy approaches for online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes where someone wants clearer direction.Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on providing a warm, accepting space where the client sets the pace and topics. This approach helps people feel heard and build confidence to make changes at their own speed.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that fit the person's goals and preferences. This collaborative process means adjustments can be made as needs evolve.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check‑ins, ongoing reflection between sessions or when scheduling shorter contacts.
Using different formats makes it easier to fit therapy around work, family time and everyday life, while keeping continuity as progress is made with the chosen therapeutic approach.
