About Carlos

Carlos Calvet Ortin is a BACP counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem and depression. He can offer sessions in English and Spanish.

Carlos has spent much of his career helping people process loss. That includes the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, losing a job, or other losses that leave a person feeling bereft. He also supports people dealing with panic attacks, social anxiety and phobia, isolation and loneliness.

His approach is integrative with a person-centred model at the core. That means he adapts methods to fit the person in front of him rather than following a single technique. Psychodynamic ideas and existential questions may inform sessions alongside client-centred work.

Carlos has worked across private practice, Employee Assistance Programmes, healthcare providers, charities and schools. He understands the specific emotional strains that can come with moving to the UK and being separated from family and community.

He brings a background in Fine Arts to his counselling. Creativity and imagination are sometimes used to help people access parts of themselves that are hard to reach in talk alone. Sessions aim to proceed at a steady pace so people can explore what matters to them.

To begin, clients use a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the See online therapy options button. The subscription model for sessions can be cancelled at any time and fees vary by location.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Carlos draws on client-centred, psychodynamic and existential approaches and uses them in ways that suit the person. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely to what matters to the client and supporting their ability to find their own solutions. It is often helpful for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or low self-esteem.

Psychodynamic work looks at patterns that repeat over time and the feelings beneath them, which can help when panic attacks, isolation or repetitive thoughts feel unmanageable. Existential therapy addresses questions of meaning, life direction and major transitions, useful for people facing midlife crisis, identity concerns or the grief of immigration.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will discuss options and adapt methods based on the client's needs, goals and preferences, so the therapeutic plan is decided collaboratively.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or remove travel time to appointments. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists, use these practical benefits to help clients continue regular work on their concerns.
