About Salome

Salome Carter is an AASW social worker with ten years' clinical experience in Australia. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, career uncertainty, depression, grief and parenting challenges. Salome also supports people affected by trauma, compassion fatigue and ADHD.

She has worked in counselling, complex family support and parenting programs. Her background includes relationship and separation work, family violence response and help during major life transitions. These roles shaped her practical approach to day-to-day problems.

Salome uses evidence-informed, strengths-based and trauma-informed ways of working. She adapts methods to each person's situation rather than relying on a single approach. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, building coping strategies and creating actions that can be used outside sessions.

People who feel overwhelmed, stuck or pulled between competing demands are the kinds of clients she often helps. Work with her may include clarifying priorities, improving communication, setting boundaries and making difficult decisions. There is also space to process grief, loss and past hurt.

Her aim is to keep therapy purposeful and relevant. She works collaboratively to identify what someone needs from therapy and then directs sessions toward practical steps and clearer ways forward.

If you are in early adulthood and dealing with work, study, relationships or major life changes, Salome offers focused support to help you manage those pressures and plan next steps.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Salome works from evidence-informed, strengths-based and trauma-informed frameworks. Evidence-informed methods mean she draws on therapies shown to help people manage anxiety, depression and trauma symptoms. Strengths-based work focuses on the skills and resources someone already has and building on those to manage stress and life changes. Trauma-informed practice pays attention to past hurt and how it affects current relationships and coping. Finding the best approach is part of the work together. She will talk with you about your needs, goals and preferences and adjust methods as therapy progresses. That collaborative process helps decide which techniques to try and when to shift direction. The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts at work or moving between homes. They also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, the option to avoid travel, and direct continuation of therapy through life changes. Appropriately qualified therapists can use these options to keep therapy practical and relevant to day-to-day life.
