About Femi
Femi Carty is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years' practice in the United Kingdom. He works with young adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief and coping with life changes. He also supports people dealing with parenting concerns, addiction, stress and career uncertainty.
Femi uses an integrative approach and draws on several methods to meet different needs. That means he will talk through what is happening, try to understand patterns from early relationships, and work on practical changes for day-to-day life. Sessions focus on thoughts, feelings and behaviours so clients leave with clearer steps to try between meetings.
Early sessions begin with an assessment to map current mental health and reasons for counselling. From there he and the client plan what the work will look like and agree on goals. The first meeting is framed as a chance to build trust and check that working together feels right.
Practical options include telephone appointments throughout the day and video sessions from 18:00 UK time. Femi accepts clients based in the UK and international clients and conducts sessions in English. Fees vary by location and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
He applies methods drawn from attachment-based work, client-centred approaches, cognitive behavioural techniques, emotionally-focused ideas and Jungian thinking. These are blended to suit individual concerns rather than used in a fixed order.
How his approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps with intimacy, trust and relationship difficulties. It involves talking about past and present interactions to notice repeating dynamics and try new ways of relating. Client-centred counselling focuses on the client's perspective and uses open conversation to help clarify goals, feelings and choices. It is useful for people unsure what they want to change. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and introduces practical exercises to test and change them, helpful for anxiety, low mood and stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Femi will work collaboratively to decide which mix of methods best fits the client’s needs, aims and preferences. That means checking in after early sessions and adjusting focus as work progresses.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting counselling into study, work and busy days. Telephone appointments can be scheduled throughout the day for shorter check-ins or when video is not needed. Video sessions are offered from 18:00 UK time for longer, face-to-face style conversations. Confirm current session options before booking so arrangements match your routine and technology setup.
