About Carey-Sue
Carey-Sue Ham is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience. She works from the view that each person knows their own story and brings existing strengths to difficult times. She offers steady support to people who have taken the difficult step of seeking change and wants to help them move toward a more fulfilling life.
Her background includes work with trauma and abuse, childhood abuse, addiction, anxiety and depression. She also addresses recovery from narcissistic abuse and a wide range of related concerns such as grief, stress, anger and low self-esteem. Carey-Sue combines this experience with client-centred conversations to meet people where they are.
In sessions she uses practical listening and reflective questions to help people notice patterns and options. She draws on Emotionally-Focused ideas to look at how feelings shape relationships, and on mindfulness to help manage overwhelming moments. Motivational Interviewing and psychodynamic thinking inform how she explores motivation and underlying life patterns.
Carey-Sue aims to keep work straightforward and focused on what matters to each person. She supports people through career changes, parenting strain, chronic health concerns and the practical fallout from relationship breakdown. She also helps with intimacy-related issues and the everyday effects of ADHD.
People choosing to work with her will find a calm, non-judgemental presence and an emphasis on small, achievable steps. She invites clients to bring their goals and to shape the pace of work together.
How Carey-Sue’s approaches translate to online therapy
Carey-Sue commonly uses client-centred methods that prioritise the person’s own goals and perspective. This approach means sessions focus on listening closely, reflecting what matters to the client and helping them choose practical next steps. It is useful for stress, relationship concerns and everyday life changes.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to look at how feelings influence connections and behaviour. That work helps with intimacy-related issues, attachment concerns and recovery from relational hurt. Mindfulness techniques are used to build tolerance for strong feelings and to reduce rumination in anxiety and depression.
Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist will work collaboratively to decide what fits best. Goals, preferences and how a person responds in early sessions will guide which methods are used and how they are blended.
