Carey-Sue Ham , BACP

Carey-Sue Ham is a UK-based therapist with 9 years of professional experience supporting people through trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. She works with a wide range of concerns including narcissistic abuse recovery, childhood abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. Drawing on a broad clinical background, she approaches each person as the expert of their own story and looks to build on the strengths clients already possess.

Carey-Sue believes that choosing to seek support is a courageous step toward a more fulfilling life, and she aims to offer steady, compassionate guidance during that process. Her practice integrates client-centered principles that prioritize empathy and collaboration, and she also draws on approaches that help people regulate emotion, increase self-awareness, and develop practical coping skills.

She holds the BACP credential - a membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and provides therapy in English to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Carey-Sue’s style is supportive and goal-oriented, focusing on what matters most to each individual as they work toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Carey-Sue Ham uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, collaborative space where the client's perspective guides the work. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and building on the individual's strengths to address issues like low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

She also integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help people understand and shift patterns in close relationships. EFT supports couples and individuals who want to improve attachment, repair emotional disconnection, or process experiences of abandonment and attachment-related difficulties.

Mindfulness therapy is used alongside these approaches to help people develop present-moment awareness and practical strategies for managing anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Carey-Sue collaborates with each person to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they consider which methods feel most helpful and adapt the work over time.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives or to connect across distances. These options provide accessible opportunities to receive consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists while maintaining the practical convenience people often need.
