Femi Carty, BACP

Femi Carty is a counsellor who helps people facing relationship problems, sexual and intimacy-related issues, grief, depression and anxiety. He also supports people dealing with stress, addictions, parenting pressures, trauma and changes in life. He works to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through what is worrying them.

Femi uses an integrative approach, drawing on different methods to match each person’s needs. He listens first, then offers practical strategies and ways to understand patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Sessions aim to help people feel more confident and gain clearer direction in day-to-day life.

In the first meeting he completes an assessment to understand current mental health and the reasons for seeking counselling. From there he and the client plan what to work on in future sessions and set simple, realistic goals. The tone is collaborative and paced to suit the individual.

Femi holds BACP credentials, which indicate membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has four years of professional experience working with varied concerns including intimacy, attachment and complex grief.

He offers telephone sessions throughout the day and video sessions from 6:00pm UK time, so people can choose what fits their routine. International clients may be accepted, and language of work is English.

How Femi uses therapeutic approaches online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. Online work with this approach often looks at patterns of closeness and distance and helps people notice and change repeated interaction styles.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the process. The counsellor offers empathic listening and reflection so clients can find their own solutions to issues like self-esteem, grief or relationship strain.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In remote sessions CBT can include practical exercises and simple behavioural steps to try between appointments to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, past experience and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted as the sessions progress.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into everyday life. Telephone sessions are available throughout the day for shorter check-ins or when being on camera is difficult. Video sessions run from 6:00pm UK time for more in-depth work. Confirm current session options before booking so arrangements match practical needs.
