About Carrie

Carrie Hammett is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and eating and body image concerns. She offers a calm space for people to speak freely and begin to make sense of difficult feelings. She understands that reaching out can feel hard and acknowledges the courage it takes to start therapy.

With eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Carrie has worked with people dealing with parenting pressures, family conflict, grief and loss. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, ADHD, low self‑esteem and life changes. Her background includes work with issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, chronic illness, and codependency.

Carrie uses Client‑Centered Therapy to guide her work. That means she focuses on listening closely and helping people find their own insights and solutions, rather than imposing a fixed plan. Sessions concentrate on what matters most to the person in front of her, at a pace that feels manageable.

In practical terms, clients can expect a straightforward, respectful approach. Conversations are grounded in everyday language. Carrie aims to help people notice patterns, build coping skills, and try different ways of responding to stressful situations.

If you are thinking about starting therapy, the initial steps are simple. Use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and arrange sessions based on the therapist's availability. Costs vary with location and the service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Client‑Centred Therapy works online

Carrie uses Client‑Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and responding to what the client says. The counsellor aims to reflect feelings and help the person discover their own answers, which can help with anxiety, relationship strain and eating concerns.

The therapist works at the client's pace and uses straightforward conversation rather than technical language. That approach can suit people who want a supportive, non‑directive space to talk through parenting stress, grief, trauma or changes in life circumstances.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carrie will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together they will decide what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as needs change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and medical appointments. They can also allow shorter check‑ins when time is limited, or avoid the need to travel for an appointment. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use online work to make attending more practical for everyday life.
