Faythe Carey, BACP

Faythe Carey helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or major life changes. She speaks plainly and works to make sessions feel manageable. Faythe is based in the United Kingdom and has six years of professional experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

In sessions Faythe focuses on what matters most to each person. She listens carefully and tailors conversations and plans to fit individual needs and goals. Practical steps and clear language are central to her way of working so people can try things between meetings.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including family difficulties, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting stress, identity and LGBT issues, and problems with sleep or eating. She also supports people facing career strain, compassion fatigue, chronic illness and relationship challenges.

Faythe draws on client-centred ideas to keep the person’s experience central. She uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and psychodynamic approaches when exploring long-standing patterns. Trauma-focused methods are used where trauma is a key part of someone’s story.

Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged for international clients. Faythe aims to work collaboratively and respectfully, helping people build clearer thinking and small, achievable steps towards a more manageable life.

How Faythe’s approaches work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience and aims to make conversations feel safe and non-judgemental. Online, this means sessions centre on listening carefully and reflecting what matters to the individual so they can see their options more clearly.

Motivational interviewing is a short-term, goal-focused way of talking that helps people find their own reasons to change. In remote sessions it is useful for tackling addictions, lifestyle shifts or building motivation for difficult tasks because it emphasises small, doable steps.

Psychodynamic ideas can help when someone wants to understand long-term patterns in relationships or mood. Over video or phone this approach uses gentle exploration of past and present events to spot repeating cycles and open up new choices.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Faythe will discuss options and decide together which methods suit a person’s needs, aims and preferences. She adapts plans as progress is made so the process stays collaborative.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how and when people meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging works for ongoing support between sessions. These formats help fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments while keeping a steady therapeutic relationship with registered or accredited professionals.
