About Edinson
Edinson Zapata Castrillon is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. He speaks English and Spanish and accepts international clients.
Edinson believes clients know their own stories and brings that perspective into sessions. He focuses on practical conversation and close listening rather than labels. Sessions are aimed at helping people notice patterns, manage strong feelings, and rebuild confidence step by step.
He draws on approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centred methods, emotionally focused ideas and mindfulness to support process and change. That means he pays attention to how relationships shape feelings and helps people practise new ways of relating to themselves and others. He also uses existential questions to look at meaning and direction when that fits.
In a typical session Edinson helps clients talk through what matters most right now. He offers straightforward reflection, asks questions that clarify goals, and suggests exercises to try between meetings. These might include mindfulness practices or short reflections on patterns of thinking and behaviour.
People can expect a calm, direct style that encourages self-knowledge and small, manageable steps. To begin, clients use a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Edinson commonly uses attachment-based approaches and client-centred work to guide online conversations. Attachment-based work focuses on how past and present relationships influence feelings and coping, useful for people who find closeness or trust difficult. Client-centred methods emphasise the client's perspective and prioritise listening and reflection to help people make their own choices.He also draws on emotionally focused ideas and mindfulness practices to help manage strong emotions. Emotionally focused techniques look at how emotions shape interaction and internal experience, while mindfulness offers short exercises to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without judgement. Together these methods aim to increase awareness and provide practical tools for everyday situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Edinson will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and he adjusts plans as those goals evolve.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm the exact online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow quieter check-ins, or let them use audio rather than video when that feels better. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists using these approaches, commonly use online sessions to make counselling more workable alongside daily life.
