About Femi

Femi Carty is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing relationship difficulties, grief, parenting strain, depression, anxiety and stress. He also supports people coping with addiction, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, career challenges and life changes. He works with issues such as intimacy, anger, communication problems and coping with natural or human-caused disaster.

He offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through what is happening in their lives. Sessions begin with an assessment to understand current feelings and practical concerns. From there, he and the client plan the work together and agree on realistic steps to take between sessions.

Femi describes his practice as integrative, drawing on different methods to suit each person’s needs. That means he pays attention to how thoughts, emotions and relationships interact, and adapts approaches to match what helps most. The first session focuses on gathering a clear picture and setting shared goals.

He provides telephone sessions throughout the day and video sessions from 6:00pm UK time. These options are offered so people can choose what fits their routine and comfort level. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Femi has four years of professional experience and works from the United Kingdom. He offers services in English and accepts international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current feelings. Online sessions can help people notice these patterns, practise new ways of connecting, and address issues like abandonment or attachment difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the work, offering a listening, non-judgemental space where the client leads the conversation. This approach helps with low self-esteem, stress and life transitions by allowing the client to set the pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress and coping after traumatic events. Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will work together with the client to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. That collaboration means plans can be adjusted if something is not working. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into busy lives. Telephone sessions run throughout the day and shorter check-ins can be arranged when time is limited. Video sessions are available from 6:00pm UK time, which may suit people who prefer a face-to-face feel outside work hours. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know what will be offered.
