Carol Broad, NCPS

Carol Broad is an English-speaking counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings five years of professional experience to her practice. She holds the NCPS credential, a counselling qualification that reflects her formal training and commitment to ongoing professional development. Carol works with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, grief and loss, motivation concerns, and issues with self-esteem and confidence.

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, focusing first on listening carefully to understand the situations that are causing distress. From that foundation she collaborates with individuals to develop tailored dialogue and treatment plans that address their specific needs and goals. Her work emphasizes practical, solution-oriented steps alongside empathic support to help clients move toward more fulfilling and balanced lives.

Recognising that taking the first step toward change can be difficult, Carol offers encouragement and steady support throughout the process. She aims to make therapy a responsive, person-focused experience that honours each client’s unique circumstances and pace of progress.

Therapeutic approaches Carol brings to online work

Carol often draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships influence current patterns of relating. This approach helps people understand emotional bonds and develop more secure ways of connecting, which can be useful for relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, a person-focused method that prioritises empathic listening and the client’s own goals. This approach supports self-exploration and personal growth, making it a good fit for work on self-esteem, life transitions, and coping with loss.

In addition, Carol integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, often used for anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and mood concerns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative part of Carol’s work. She will discuss options with each person and tailor the plan to their needs, goals, and preferences so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, varying energy levels, or those in different locations. These formats make it easier to maintain regular contact and to access therapeutic support from wherever the client is situated, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists who guide the process.
