About Carrie
Carrie Hammett is a counsellor with eight years of professional experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and relationship strain. She aims to make the first step easier by offering a calm, non-judgemental space where difficult thoughts and feelings can be spoken about. Her approach is warm and patient, designed to help someone feel heard and understood from the outset.
Carrie uses Client-Centred Therapy, which means sessions focus on the person rather than labels. She listens carefully and follows the pace that suits each individual. This can be useful for people dealing with parenting pressures, family conflict, or the after-effects of trauma and loss.
Her work also covers concerns such as low self-esteem, eating issues, depression and coping with life changes. She supports people navigating adoption and foster care matters, attachment difficulties, and challenges related to chronic illness and pain. Carrie explains things plainly and helps clients find practical ways to manage day-to-day stressors.
People who come for help with compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, or body image worries will find a steady, empathetic presence in sessions. She encourages self-compassion and small, realistic steps towards change. Conversations aim to make coping feel more manageable and less isolating.
Sessions are conducted in English and take place within the United Kingdom. Carrie describes starting therapy as an act of courage and works alongside clients to set realistic goals and next steps.
How Carrie’s client-centred approach translates to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and responding to what each person brings. The therapist offers empathy, acceptance and understanding to help people talk through feelings like anxiety, grief or parenting strain. This approach is often helpful when someone needs space to be heard without pressure to follow a set plan.Sessions also concentrate on practical support for everyday problems, such as coping with chronic illness, body image worries or managing stress. The emphasis is on the person’s experience and on small, achievable steps that can reduce overwhelm and build resilience over time.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Carrie will work with each client to decide what feels most useful, adjusting the pace and focus as goals emerge. She collaborates with people to identify priorities and to shape sessions around their needs and preferences.
Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time, and choose quieter surroundings for talking. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or avoid being on camera for part of a session, depending on what the therapist offers.
