Carrie Hammett, BACP

Carrie Hammett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and grief. She works with individuals who are managing parenting challenges, family conflict, eating and body image concerns, and life changes that feel overwhelming. Carrie is mindful about making the first step feel manageable and encourages people to reach out when they are ready.

Carrie uses a Client-Centred Therapy approach. In sessions she listens with attention and reflects what she hears so people can make sense of their feelings. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what matters to each person in their day to day life.

With eight years of experience, Carrie draws on practical, conversational work rather than jargon. She helps people untangle patterns such as codependency, commitment worries, and difficulties tied to adoption, attachment or abandonment. She also supports people living with chronic illness, cancer, chronic pain, or disability who want help coping with the emotional impact.

Sessions address issues like trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, and problems that follow separation or divorce. Carrie pays attention to how family roles and fatherhood concerns affect feelings and behaviour. The aim is to build clearer choices and better day-to-day coping.

People who meet her can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through worries and explore practical next steps. She invites prospective clients to take the small step of starting a conversation when they feel ready.

How Carrie’s approach works in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, understanding and reflecting back what the client says. It helps people who feel stuck by creating space to notice emotions, sort through options and find their own solutions. This approach suits worries like anxiety, grief, relationship strain and the emotional effects of chronic illness.

Finding the right way to work together is a shared process. Carrie will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and adapt the approach as needed. The aim is to agree on a style that fits the person’s needs and day-to-day life rather than imposing a fixed method.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can make it simpler to have regular check-ins, reduce travel time and allow people to join from wherever they are based in the United Kingdom.
