About Carrie

Carrie Hammett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and relationship strains. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk things through and supports practical steps for day-to-day coping. Carrie encourages clients to take small first steps and acknowledges how difficult reaching out can feel.

Over eight years she has worked with people facing parenting pressures, family conflict and the fallout from separation and loss. She also supports those coping with trauma, chronic illness, eating concerns, low self-esteem and ADHD-related challenges. She pays attention to how life events affect routine and mood, and looks for manageable changes clients can try between sessions.

Carrie uses a client-centred approach which means conversations focus on the person in front of her. She listens without judgement and helps clients find their own solutions. Sessions tend to be practical and grounded in the client’s daily life rather than theoretical descriptions.

Her background in the UK and eight years of practice mean she is familiar with a wide range of personal and family issues. She aims to make sessions straightforward and clear, so people leave with ideas they can use the same week.

If you are thinking about therapy, she asks simple questions to find out what matters to you first. That way the work stays relevant to your goals and fits your everyday routine.

How Carrie’s client-centred approach works online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding the person’s perspective and building a trusting relationship. The counsellor listens carefully, reflects what they hear and helps the client find their own answers. This approach often suits people tackling relationship strains, grief, stress or self-esteem concerns because it starts with the client’s priorities.

Because Carrie follows the client’s lead, she will work with you to choose methods that feel right. That means discussing what you want from sessions and trying things that match your goals and everyday life. The process of finding the best approach is collaborative and adjusted over time based on what helps most.

The biography does not specify which online formats are used, so please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy around family, work or medical commitments. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins between appointments and make it simpler to maintain continuity of care when schedules change. Registered or accredited professionals can explain practical arrangements when you arrange your first session.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
