About Carrie
Carrie Hammett offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or parenting pressures. She meets each person with a straightforward, non-judgemental style and helps them talk through what matters now. Her name appears up front so readers know who they will meet.
Carrie has eight years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
She focuses on building a trusting space where clients can describe their worries and consider small, achievable changes. Her approach is based on Client-Centred Therapy, which means listening closely and following the client’s pace. Sessions tend to emphasise empathy, reflection and practical steps people can try between meetings.
This can be useful for issues such as grief, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Carrie also supports people facing trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, eating and body image concerns, and family problems including adoption or attachment questions. She helps individuals work through separation, parenting strains, chronic illness or cancer-related distress, and codependency patterns.
If someone is unsure where to begin, Carrie helps clarify priorities and breaks problems down into manageable pieces. The focus is on what the person wants to change and realistic ways to get there. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she acknowledges that courage throughout the process.
