About Carrie

Carrie Hammett is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with adults carrying stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, relationship and family difficulties, grief and loss, and related issues such as low self-esteem and depression. Carrie also supports people dealing with trauma, eating concerns, compassion fatigue and ADHD.

Her approach is client-centred, which means she focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. Sessions are practical and conversational. Carrie aims to make space for people to talk through thoughts and feelings without judgement.

In sessions she helps people untangle immediate problems and the feelings that keep coming back. That can include coping strategies for stress, ways of talking about painful family history, and managing the daily effects of grief. She also works with concerns around body image, codependency and commitment worries.

Carrie draws on eight years working with people from different backgrounds, including those affected by chronic illness, adoption and attachment issues, domestic violence, and fatherhood challenges. She keeps the focus on what each person needs in the moment and adapts the conversation accordingly.

People can expect a steady, talk-based approach that centres their experience. The work is collaborative and paced to what someone can manage. Carrie asks clear questions and offers reflections that help bring unwanted feelings into view.

How client-centred work adapts to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting and following what the client brings to the session. It helps people who carry guilt, shame, anxiety or grief by prioritising their perspective and allowing them to set the pace. The counsellor offers responses that help clarify feelings and consider next steps.

Choosing the right way of working is part of the therapy process. Carrie will discuss what feels most useful and adjust approaches based on a client's goals and preferences. That collaborative conversation helps identify which techniques or discussion styles fit best for the person in front of her.

The practical benefits of online work include making sessions easier to fit into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online options can also make shorter check-ins manageable when someone needs brief support between appointments. The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm the available online options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote appointments to help people keep continuity of care while balancing everyday responsibilities.
