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.
How Carrie works online
Because the method centres on the person, deciding on the right approach is a collaborative task. Carrie will work with each person to figure out which ways of working feel most helpful for their needs and goals. That may mean trying different pacing, session structure or conversational focus until a good fit is found.
The original biography does not list which online formats are used, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and other daily demands. They can also allow for shorter check-ins, less travel and greater flexibility when scheduling, which helps therapy slot into a busy life.
