About Carlos
Carlos Calvet Ortin is a BACP counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. He brings eight years of practice and a background in fine arts to his work. He speaks English and Spanish and aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable.
He often helps people coping with loss, whether that means the death of someone close, the end of a relationship, losing a job, or other painful changes. He also works with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, loneliness, panic attacks and related concerns.
Background and approach
His practice includes support for people struggling with identity, obsessive thoughts, communication problems and feeling stuck. Carlos uses an integrative approach with a person-centred model at its heart. That means he adapts methods to match each person rather than following a fixed formula.
Sessions tend to focus on what matters to the person in front of him and on practical steps they can try between meetings. His fine arts degree informs a creative thread in therapy, using imagination and expressive ideas to access feelings that are hard to name.
He believes creative ways of working can uncover hidden parts of a person and help move things forward. Carlos is aware of struggles people face when relocating to the UK and the feelings of isolation that can follow.
He also notes how cultural expectations about masculinity can make it harder for some men to ask for help, and he aims to create a non-judgemental space where those topics can be discussed openly.

How Carlos works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Carlos will discuss goals and preferences with each person and test different ways of working to see what helps most. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as the work unfolds.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy week, easier access for people who have moved within the UK, and avoiding travel time. Because the exact session formats for this therapist are not listed here, please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful for maintaining continuity of care and for making regular check-ins more feasible alongside everyday commitments.
