About Salome
Salome Carter is a Social Worker and Child & Family Therapist with 10 years’ experience in Australia. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and major life changes. Salome also supports those dealing with grief, parenting pressures, career concerns and compassion fatigue.
Her practice focuses on practical, evidence-informed methods and a strengths-based, trauma-aware stance. She adapts therapy to the person rather than assuming one way will fit everyone. Sessions often involve making sense of current problems and developing straightforward strategies to use day to day.
Salome has worked in complex family settings and with separation and family violence issues, so she is familiar with difficult relational patterns and safety considerations. She also brings experience supporting people with ADHD, attachment concerns, adoption and foster care matters, and ageing or caregiver stress.
Typical work includes identifying unhelpful patterns, building coping skills, clarifying priorities, and practising communication and boundary skills. The emphasis is on concrete steps clients can try between sessions and reviewing what helps and what doesn’t.
People who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or stretched between competing demands often find her approach useful. Together they clarify what needs to change and focus sessions on practical progress. Salome aims for therapy that feels purposeful and relevant to everyday life.
Evidence-informed approaches used in online work
Salome draws on practical, evidence-informed techniques that focus on what people can do day to day. One common strand is strengths-based work which helps people identify existing skills and use them to manage stress and difficult decisions. This approach suits anyone wanting clear steps to build on what already works.She also uses trauma-aware methods to understand how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions. That helps when anxiety, overwhelm or relationship patterns trace back to earlier events. Therapy then includes grounding strategies, pacing and checking what feels manageable for each person.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Salome will discuss different options, try methods and adapt them based on the client’s goals and preferences. That collaborative exploration helps settle on techniques that fit the client’s daily life and abilities.
Confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, caregiving or travel. They can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that suits a client’s needs. Practical flexibility is a clear benefit when organising therapy around everyday commitments.
