About Carol Hounslow
Carol works with adults of all ages, with particular experience supporting people who have lived with domestic and sexual abuse. In addition to her adult practice, she currently provides counselling to young people in school settings, working with students in Years 7 through 11. Her work with adolescents complements her broader practice and reflects a commitment to supporting people at different life stages.

Her therapeutic manner is calm, patient and kind, creating space for clients to explore difficult experiences at their own pace. Carol draws on a person-centred foundation to collaborate with clients, help them clarify goals, and build resilience as they navigate stress, relationships, trauma and life changes.

Approaches that guide online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current ways of relating and coping. It helps people explore patterns of connection and repair difficulties in close relationships, which can be useful for work on attachment issues, relationship problems, and trauma related to interpersonal harm.
Client-Centred Therapy is grounded in empathy and the therapist offering non-judgmental support. This approach encourages clients to lead the pace and focus of sessions, helping build self-awareness, self-esteem, and emotional resilience for a wide range of concerns such as stress, depression, and life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can be effective for anxiety, low mood, obsessive thinking, and difficulties with coping skills.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Carol works collaboratively with clients to identify what fits best with their needs, goals and preferences. Together they review what is helping and adapt the work as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging - so people can choose what suits their schedule and comfort. These options make it easier to access consistent support across distances and at different life stages, while enabling registered professionals to use the approaches above in ways that match each client’s circumstances.
