About Carrie
Carrie Hammett is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with people who are coping with stress and anxiety, parenting pressures, relationship problems, family conflict, and grief and loss. She also supports clients facing issues with self-esteem, depression, trauma and abuse, and neurodiversity concerns such as autism and Asperger syndrome.
Carrie uses a client-centred approach that focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings. Sessions tend to be conversational but purposeful, with attention to the feelings and thoughts a person has in their everyday life. She aims to give people space to talk through difficult moments and consider practical ways to manage them.
Her background includes work with people dealing with eating concerns, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and the stresses of caring roles. She has supported people through separation, adoption and foster care questions, and issues around attachment and abandonment. That experience informs her awareness of how life events affect relationships and self-view.
Carrie pays attention to everyday coping - small steps that make routines more manageable and reduce overwhelm. She helps people notice patterns, try different responses, and review what works. Sessions are intended to be straightforward and focused on what the individual hopes to change.
People can expect a steady, listening-based way of working that connects current problems with past experiences where relevant. Practical strategies and calmer talking often go together in her sessions, depending on what someone needs.
How Carrie uses client-centred work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says. The therapist aims to follow the client’s lead, encourage honest expression, and help people make sense of their feelings. This approach is often used for problems like anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain, and grief.In online work this way of working simply means the counsellor will pay attention to what matters most to the client and adjust session pace accordingly. Finding the right approach is part of the process, and she will work with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is made together and can be reviewed as therapy continues.
Practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a busy week and the ability to maintain continuity when in-person meetings are difficult. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as options are not specified here. The emphasis is on making therapy manageable alongside daily responsibilities rather than on any single delivery method.
