About Carrie
Carrie Hammett is a counsellor with eight years of professional experience in the UK. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, parenting pressures and relationship strain. Carrie aims to make the first step easier by offering a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through what matters most to each person.
She uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person, not the diagnosis, at the heart of sessions. That means listening closely, reflecting what is heard, and helping people find their own solutions. Conversations are practical and grounded, with time given to what feels most urgent for the client.
Carrie has worked across a range of concerns including coping with life changes, low self-esteem, chronic illness and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care matters, attachment questions, and abandonment issues. These areas are treated with patience and steady attention.
Her work is straightforward and clear. She helps people identify small changes to reduce pressure, manage difficult emotions, and rebuild confidence. Sessions are paced to fit individual needs rather than following a rigid plan.
If you want help talking through a problem or finding new ways to cope, Carrie uses listening and reflection to guide the process. She encourages people to take the steps that feel right for them and to move forward at their own pace.
How client-centred work translates to online sessions
Client-centred therapy focuses on attentive listening and helping the person lead the conversation. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what they hear, asks questions to clarify, and supports clients to find their own solutions. This approach can suit issues such as stress, relationship strain, grief and the emotional impacts of adoption and foster care concerns.That same client-centred way of working adapts well to online care because it emphasises collaboration. The counsellor will check in about what style and pace suit you, and together you will decide how to proceed. Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be agreed based on your needs and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or allowing shorter check-ins around work. It can also help when a quieter environment or less screen time is needed, by choosing an option that fits those preferences. Registered or accredited professionals tailor sessions to practical needs while helping people work through feelings and day-to-day challenges.
