Caroline Scol, BACP, NCPS

Caroline Scol brings 24 years of experience as a counsellor in the United Kingdom. She begins by listening and offering clients choices about how to work together. Caroline aims to help people make practical changes and feel more confident about next steps in their lives.

She has supported people with a wide range of concerns, including relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, stress and anxiety, addiction, depression and intimacy-related issues. Her work also covers parenting questions, sleep problems, grief, and challenges around identity and sexual expression such as BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture.

Caroline uses client-centred ways of working to keep sessions focused on what matters to each person. She also draws on solution-focused techniques to help set clear goals. For people affected by traumatic events she brings trauma-focused methods to help reduce the hold of painful memories.

Her style is practical and down-to-earth. She encourages people to build on their own strengths and to try manageable steps between sessions. Conversations are paced to suit the person’s needs and to make progress feel realistic rather than overwhelming.

Caroline holds the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy credential (BACP) and is listed with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She works in English and accepts international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding the person’s perspective and building a trusting working relationship. It helps when someone needs a listening space to make sense of feelings and decide what matters most.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clear, practical steps and short-term goals. It suits people who want specific changes, such as improving communication or managing anxiety with simple routines.

Trauma-Focused Therapy attends to the effects of painful past events and uses targeted methods to reduce intrusive memories and strong reactions. It can be helpful for people dealing with trauma and abuse who want to work through those experiences at a manageable pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and help decide which methods to use. That choice is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to access a therapist from another location. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Practical benefits include simpler travel, easier scheduling around work or caregiving, and a range of ways to check in that can suit quieter or shorter conversations.
