About Shane Carter
He works from a client-centered perspective, gently supporting people to explore how past experiences shape present feelings and behaviours while also focusing on immediate concerns and coping strategies. When appropriate, he will introduce a challenge to help clients see situations from a different angle and open up new possibilities for growth. Shane places high value on honesty and genuineness in the therapeutic relationship and aims to be straightforward and congruent in sessions when that feels helpful.
Outside of live sessions he stays actively engaged by checking in via messaging, responding promptly to queries, sharing worksheets that may support progress and assisting clients to set practical goals. He is registered with the BACP - a professional membership for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK - and uses an approachable, strengths-based style to help people move toward the changes they want.

Client-Centered Support and Online Sessions
Shane practises client-centered therapy, which centres on creating an accepting, empathetic space where clients lead the pace and focus of their work. This approach helps people explore feelings, build self-understanding and address issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and trauma by following what matters most to the individual. He often incorporates imagery and metaphor for clients who find visual or creative expression helpful, allowing different modes of communication beyond words.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Shane approaches this collaboratively. Together with each client he will consider needs, goals and personal preferences to identify which methods feel most useful, adjusting the style and pace as therapy unfolds.

These options allow registered professionals to maintain continuity of care and fit therapy into varied schedules while supporting meaningful progress over time.
