Carole Davies, BACP, NCPS
Carole Davies offers calm, practical support for people feeling low, overwhelmed or uncertain.
About Carole
Carole Davies offers calm, practical support for people feeling low, overwhelmed or uncertain. She meets clients where they are and helps them make small, steady changes. Her style is warm and non-judgemental, and she focuses on what matters to each person in the room.
Carole has five years' experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She has worked in addiction recovery settings and with people facing big life changes like bereavement, relationship breakdowns and career shifts.
Background and approach
That background means she understands how loss and change can knock confidence and leave someone feeling stuck. Sessions are person-led and humanistic. Carole listens first, then helps clients name what they most want to work on.
She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and mindfulness to offer tools that fit a client's day-to-day life. For someone dealing with shame after addictive behaviour, she focuses on rebuilding routine, self-kindness and practical steps towards sobriety.
For grief or career change she helps people reconcile the past, find present moments of joy and plan toward the future. Carole invites a collaborative pace so clients stay in control of sessions. She aims to restore confidence and help people feel more like themselves again.
If someone is ready to begin, she guides them through the next steps and supports them as they write the next chapter of their life.

Online support
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathy and listening. The counsellor follows the client's lead and helps them explore feelings at their own pace, which can be helpful for grief, low self-esteem and relationship concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carole will discuss different methods and decide together which mix suits the client's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative planning means the pace and tools can change as progress happens.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people speak face to face and read non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping therapy practical and accessible.
