About Edinson

Edinson Zapata Castrillon helps people work on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self esteem and depression using a client-centred approach. He draws on attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas to understand relationships and feelings. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.

Edinson believes each person is the expert on their own story and looks to build on existing strengths. Sessions focus on talking things through, identifying patterns and trying small changes that make day-to-day life easier. He uses mindfulness and existential ideas to help people notice their emotions and consider life choices in practical ways.

In practice, Edinson pays attention to how early relationships affect current feelings and behaviour. That might mean looking at attachment patterns, or working through painful memories from trauma or abuse. He also supports people dealing with addiction and related difficulties such as control issues, codependency or drug and alcohol problems.

People who come to him often want help with relationships, low self-worth, or repeated unhelpful habits. Sessions are conversational and direct, with space to reflect and try out different ways of responding. He works in English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

Edinson trained and practised for four years before joining an online counselling service in the United Kingdom. He is registered with the BACP and brings that professional framework into his work.

How his therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and feeling. Online sessions using this approach help people see repeating patterns and try different ways of relating to others.

Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and following the client's pace. The counsellor encourages the person to talk through their concerns and helps them access their own resources and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process may lead to mixing approaches as needs change.

Please check which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or removing the need to be on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals often offer these practical benefits while working to address issues such as anxiety, addiction and relationship patterns.
