About Edinson
Edinson Zapata Castrillon is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self esteem and depression. He also helps with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues and problems linked to substance use.
Edinson frames clients as the experts in their own stories and looks for practical ways to build on existing strengths. Sessions focus on naming difficult emotions and noticing patterns that keep problems going. He encourages clear, direct conversation about what feels most pressing in a person’s life.
His work draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at emotions and attachment, and on attachment-based ideas to explore how early relationships shape current patterns. Client-Centred Therapy influences how he listens and reflects what clients say, while mindfulness and existential approaches are used to help with awareness and meaning.
In a typical session people can expect straightforward discussion, gentle reflection, and tools to help manage stresses between meetings. Edinson aims to help people recognise unhelpful cycles and try new ways of relating to themselves and others. Meetings are practical and focused on small steps that can fit into everyday life.
He offers sessions in English and Spanish and accepts international clients. To begin, clients use the platform’s matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment.
How his approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotions and how those feelings shape patterns in relationships and behaviour. It can help people notice moments when emotions become overwhelming and practise new ways of responding. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current ways of connecting and avoiding. It can be useful for spotting repeating patterns and building different relational habits. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and reflection, helping clients make sense of their own experience without pressure to follow a specific path.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Edinson will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will use that discussion to decide which techniques to try. This is a collaborative process that adjusts over time based on what helps most.
