About Carrie
Carrie Hammett helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or family strain. She welcomes conversations about parenting worries, relationship tensions, and the challenges that come with big life changes. Carrie is based in the United Kingdom and brings eight years of professional experience to her work, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Carrie aims to build an open space where people can speak honestly without fear of being judged.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on listening first, then working together to find what feels most useful. She uses straightforward language and practical steps so conversations are easy to follow, even when feelings are heavy. Her background includes supporting people with trauma and abuse, eating and body image concerns, depression, and compassion fatigue.
She also addresses issues linked to adoption and foster care, attachment, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness, and cancer. These areas often come with complicated emotions, and Carrie concentrates on pacing the work to match each person’s needs. Parents and individuals dealing with separation, codependency, commitment fears, or abandonment issues can bring those topics into sessions.
Carrie pays attention to patterns in relationships and helps people discover clearer ways to respond. She also offers help for people managing ADHD symptoms and the everyday impact they cause. Practical needs are part of the work too.
Sessions explore coping strategies for chronic pain, body changes after illness, and the emotional strain of caring roles. The aim is to develop tools that fit daily life, so progress is usable between meetings.

Approaches Carrie lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Her online work keeps the same focus on the person rather than imposing a strict programme. Sessions are collaborative - the therapist and client agree what to try and adjust the plan as needs and goals change. That means the approach can be shaped around parenting pressures, grief, chronic illness, or the practical effects of ADHD.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a fuller conversation and seeing non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing, want more flexible timing, or need to fit therapy into a busy day.
Working this way adds practical options for people juggling childcare, work or health issues, while keeping the focus on what the client finds most helpful. Registered or accredited professionals can help identify which format and approach will best support each person’s goals.
