Carey-Sue Ham, BACP

How Carey-Sue’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation. In practice this means the therapist follows what the client brings, reflects back what matters and helps the client find their own solutions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people change emotional responses that keep causing pain. This can be useful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns and recurring conflict. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce rumination and manage anxiety and stress. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Carey-Sue will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods accordingly. The choice of approach can change as progress unfolds, and she encourages clients to give feedback so sessions remain useful. Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls let clients see facial cues and share a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when low bandwidth or not being on camera helps. Live chat or text-based messaging offers brief check-ins, ongoing reflection and more flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and support continued contact when in-person appointments are not possible.
