About Carrie

Carrie Hammett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and grief. She has eight years of professional experience and uses those years to offer steady, practical support. Carrie aims to make the first step feel manageable for people who are nervous about starting therapy.

Carrie works in a way that centres the client. Sessions start with listening closely to what matters to the person in front of her.

Background and approach

She invites people to talk honestly about difficult feelings and life events without judgement. The therapist then helps them name priorities and decide what to try next. Common concerns she supports include parenting pressures, family conflict and coping with loss.

She also helps people dealing with eating and body image worries, low self-esteem, depression and the day-to-day effects of chronic illness. Trauma and abuse, ADHD-related challenges and compassion fatigue are also within her practice focus. Her approach is straightforward and conversational.

People can expect practical steps, gentle reflection and space to work through emotions at their own pace. Carrie aims to build trust so that coping strategies and new ways of relating can emerge naturally. Sessions can be arranged by following the site process, and she offers a mix of contact styles to suit different needs.

The aim is to help people move from feeling stuck to finding clearer ways forward.

How Carrie uses client-centred work online and by phone

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It means the therapist listens with empathy, reflects what she hears and lets the client guide the pace and topics. This way of working helps with issues such as anxiety, relationship strain, grief and reactions to trauma by giving people space to make sense of their experience and choose their next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carrie will collaborate with each person to decide what feels helpful, adjusting techniques and the pace as goals and needs become clearer. That conversation about approach happens together, so the plan grows from the client’s priorities and preferences.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer practical flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues and fuller conversation. Phone sessions are easier when bandwidth is low or when a voice-only check-in fits a lunch break. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions or times when writing feels easier than talking. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives while keeping the focus on their goals and needs.
