Dr Carys Williams

I am a psychotherapist and medical doctor based in Porthcawl in Wales. I am trained in counselling, psychotherapy and psychiatry with children, adolescents and adults.

Psychotherapy is about working with a professional who is qualified and experienced to provide you with an opportunity of a safe confidential space where you can talk and be listened to about whatever is troubling you. As an integrative therapist, I will draw upon different therapeutic models to tailor the therapy to you. I will work with you to find ways in which we can help you manage your troubles and move forward towards living the life you imagined.

In the initial consultation we can discuss in more detail about the models that I use in my practice.

I am registered with the General Medical Council (GMC), Royal College of Psychiatrists, The National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, the Counselling Directory and Beat. I abide by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) code of ethics. I am constantly updating my qualifications and attending professional development courses.

I have worked as a doctor in the NHS in a range of specialties with both children and adults.

With respect to psychotherapy, I have worked with clients in schools, in universities and in the NHS.

I am the founder of the counselling charity, 16 to 25 Support, and I was the Interim Clinic Lead for North & Mid Essex MIND.

I have experience of working with a range of issues such as personal life crisis, eating disorders, depression, stress, anxiety, postnatal depression, domestic violence, relationship difficulties, gender issues, OCD and stress disorders. I have worked with individuals, groups, couples and families. I also have experience in teaching groups on mental health and physical health issues.

I am able to work virtually or by telephone. If you live in or around Porthcawl, I am able to offer face-to-face appointments.
