About Femi

Femi Carty offers counselling for people facing relationship issues, grief, parenting challenges, depression, anxiety and stress. He also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, ADHD and problems with self-esteem and intimacy. Femi writes plainly and aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental setting where someone can begin to sort through difficult feelings.

He describes an integrative approach, drawing on different therapies to match each person’s needs. In early sessions he asks straightforward questions to understand what is happening now and what the person hopes to change. Together they plan practical steps and ways to test what helps between appointments.

Femi is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom and he has four years of experience. He works with people who want help with life changes, career stress, compassion fatigue and a wide range of relational and emotional concerns. Sessions aim to build confidence and clearer choices rather than quick fixes.

He offers both in-person and online contact, and provides telephone sessions at various times during the day. Video sessions are available from 6:00pm UK time. If international work is needed he can accept clients who are based outside the UK.

The first appointment begins with an assessment to gather background and current difficulties. After that, the plan is reviewed and adjusted as progress is made. The emphasis is on working at a pace that suits the individual and on practical ideas to try between meetings.

How his approaches work online and in conversation

Femi uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. This approach can help when patterns in close relationships cause distress or repeated conflicts.

He also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening without judgement and supporting a person to find their own solutions. That method is useful for building self-esteem and gaining confidence to make changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Femi will discuss what seems most helpful and adjust methods as you go. He aims to decide together which ideas to try, checking in about what works and what needs changing.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life. Telephone sessions are offered at various times and can be a shorter, less technical way to check in. Video sessions are available in the evenings from 6:00pm UK time, which may suit people with daytime commitments. Confirm the current session options before booking so arrangements match your schedule.
