About Carola

Carola Saunders is a counsellor with six years of practice in the United Kingdom and a BACP credential. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem and career challenges. She also supports those dealing with depression and life transitions.

Carola works from the belief that people know their own stories best. She draws on clients' strengths and encourages small, achievable steps. Sessions are conversational and practical, aimed at making everyday life feel more manageable.

Background and approach

Her approach blends Client‑Centred Therapy with elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. That mix lets her follow what each person brings while also offering tools to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. She helps clients practice new ways of coping between sessions.

Typical concerns she addresses include grief, anger, compassion fatigue and relationship difficulties. She also helps with attachment issues, communication problems, control concerns and the emotional effects of divorce and separation. Carola often works with people exploring life purpose, self‑love, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and workplace pressures.

She aims to make sessions down‑to‑earth and useful, with a clear focus on what a person wants to change next.

Online support

Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person. The counsellor offers empathy and reflection so the client feels heard and can make their own choices. This approach suits people who want a safe space to sort out feelings and decisions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of coping. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood and managing daily stressors. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Sessions are collaborative, and methods can be adjusted as progress is made. Online therapy offers a range of formats to fit different needs. Video calls give face‑to‑face contact and are useful for deeper conversations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text‑based messaging suit brief check‑ins, ongoing support, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel and help keep continuity when life gets busy.
