About Carrie

Carrie McColl is a counsellor who aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and life changes. She welcomes conversations about relationship worries, parenting pressures, grief, trauma and abuse, and difficulties at work. Carrie uses a warm, person-focused style to make it easier to begin talking about painful topics.

She offers one-to-one support that is tailored to each person. Sessions are presented as a collaborative process where the client and counsellor work together to build trust.

Background and approach

That relationship is treated as the starting point for making changes. Carrie uses Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the person's experience at the centre of the work. She listens closely and reflects what she hears so clients can find their own solutions.

This approach is often helpful for issues such as anxiety, low mood, identity and relationship questions. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including ADHD, LGBT matters, parenting and bereavement. Additional areas she addresses include fertility, postpartum depression, body image, workplace problems and separation.

Sessions are adapted to each person's situation and goals. Carrie has four years of counselling experience and holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration noted in her profile. She works with people across the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to suit their needs.

How Carrie uses person-centred work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the session. Carrie listens without rushing, reflects what she hears and follows the client's pace so people feel heard and understood. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, identity questions and the emotional effects of trauma.

Online sessions allow the same person-centred focus as in-person work. The therapist and client decide together which methods fit best for each issue and goal. Carrie treats finding the right approach as a joint process, adjusting style and pace to match what the client needs and prefers.

Practical online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and richer non-verbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing their thoughts. These formats give flexibility for different schedules and situations while keeping the therapeutic work central.
