About Femi

Femi Carty is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. He works with people facing relationship problems, grief, parenting strains, depression, anxiety and the stress that comes with life changes. He also helps with issues such as addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, anger and low self-esteem.

Femi uses an integrative approach and draws on several therapies to suit each person's needs. He listens to what matters most and talks through thoughts, feelings and behaviours to find practical steps forward. Sessions include an assessment at the first meeting to understand current mental health and reasons for seeking counselling.

After the assessment, he and the client plan ongoing work together. The focus is on realistic goals and manageable changes rather than large promises. Femi explains options and helps people try out strategies that fit their lives and responsibilities.

He offers telephone sessions during the day and video sessions from 6:00pm UK time. International clients are accepted and sessions are conducted in English. Pricing varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

People starting with him complete a short questionnaire, book a first session and begin with the initial assessment. The work aims to increase confidence and a greater sense of control over everyday challenges.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions support them

Femi often blends Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy with cognitive behavioural ideas. Attachment work looks at how early relationships affect current connections and helps people understand patterns in their close relationships. Client-centred work focuses on listening, reflecting and following what the person brings so sessions prioritise the client's concerns. Cognitive behavioural techniques examine thoughts and behaviours and support practical strategies for managing anxiety, low mood or stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client discuss goals, needs and preferences and decide together which methods to try. This collaborative planning helps shape each session and can change as the person makes progress or faces new challenges.

Femi offers telephone sessions during the day and video sessions from 6:00pm UK time. If you want to know which formats fit your routine, confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time so people can attend between work or caregiving commitments.
