Background and approach

In sessions she uses a client-centred style. That means conversations focus on the person in front of her and their priorities. Clients decide the pace while she offers listening, questions and practical ways to try things differently between sessions.

Her practice also addresses issues like abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns and neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome. Other areas she works with include chronic pain, codependency and fatherhood issues. Carrie aims to make therapy straightforward.

She talks in everyday language and helps people plan small steps to manage symptoms and daily challenges. Many clients find that having a calm space to reflect leads to clearer choices and better coping. She invites anyone unsure about starting to complete a simple questionnaire to see if her way of working feels like a fit.

From there people can schedule sessions in the UK to suit their needs.

Client-centred support delivered online

Carrie works primarily using client-centred therapy, which values the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely and reflects what is said to help people feel understood and clearer about their next steps. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety, relationship strain and grief because it centres on what matters most to the individual.

Her practice also focuses on practical conversations that help with day-to-day coping. Sessions involve planning small, doable actions between meetings and checking what helps. The therapist and client decide together which techniques to try and adapt them as progress is made, so the approach stays tailored and collaborative.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to allow flexible options. Video calls work well for face-to-face style conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing between appointments. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping continuity of care.
