About Carole

Carole Scarlett is a counsellor with 22 years of experience who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, loss and relationship difficulties. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what is worrying them and begin to find clearer ways forward. Carole works with short or longer-term therapy depending on each person’s needs.

Her approach is rooted in client-centred care, which means sessions are shaped around what each person brings.

Background and approach

She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and solution-focused tools to set small, practical goals. Motivational interviewing helps people find the energy to change when they feel stuck. Carole has particular experience supporting people with trauma and abuse, bereavement, depression, self-harm and low self-esteem.

She also helps with attachment concerns, codependency, eating and food-related issues, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Her multicultural awareness informs how she discusses identity and life purpose with clients. People describe her style as empathic, encouraging and consistent.

She aims to help clients notice their strengths and build on them so day-to-day life feels more manageable. Carole is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. Sessions are offered in English and take place remotely by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Carole supports people in the United Kingdom and does not take international clients currently.

How therapeutic approaches work online with Carole

Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of each session by following their pace and concerns. It focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters most so people feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers simple strategies to change patterns that keep someone stuck; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carole will discuss options and decide together which methods suit the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process means plans can change as needs evolve and new priorities emerge.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be shorter or easier when video is difficult, live chat suits people who prefer typing, and messaging supports ongoing check-ins between sessions. These formats help fit therapy into busy days and different routines while keeping the therapeutic focus on real, practical change.
