More about Carmen
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
My name is Carmen, and I am a licensed MBACP Counsellor in the United Kingdom.
I have worked with adults, children, and young people experiencing a variety of issues including low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma, stress-related issues, communication challenges, substance abuse, family conflict, loss and bereavement, and many others. My approach is integrative and combines Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
Everyone deserves to be heard, understood and supported, treated with respect, and encouraged to become a better self, and I believe that everyone has inherited value and worth.
I would describe myself as an emphatic, non-judgmental, warm, and open-minded person. Diversity and uniqueness are encouraged and would be a privilege to be part of your journey while archiving your goal.
‘’Authenticity inspires respect because it takes courage to own who you are, and it takes courage to admit fear’’ AD&GM
If you want to take that step of courage, I am here to encourage and support you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Carmen is thoughtful, resourceful, and gives me the feeling to back me up in challenging situations, while providing helpful and critical comments to help me getting better
Carmen is very caring and understanding. I appreciate how well she listens and asks engaging questions.
She is highly qualified for this job and she is a wonderful and amazing person. The true definition of a answered prayer
Carmen is a wonderful therapist. I've felt comfortable broaching difficult conversations with her and she's helped my partner and me in our relationship.
I had given up on getting better until I met Carmen, she is a wonderful person and therapist. She always makes sure I feel safe and is very empathetic, while also challenging my thoughts. She is very understanding and listens to everything I have to say and for me, that's very valuable because I feel heard and seen. I finally have hope in getting better.
My Birthday, had Covid, was in the midst of family drama- it was time to admit that I needed help. Living remotely and a busy life- BetterHelp seemed worth a try. Having been matched with Carmen as my therapist I am deeply grateful. It has been wonderful to share the load with her calm presence, therapeutic expertise and support. This has helped me take back responsibility for my well-being and healing journey whilst maintaining compassion. A much healthier outcome than relying too much on my dear friends.
I have had many psychologists and found Carmen understood how much detail and what I wanted out of conversations - no matter how hopeless to change things I feel she suggests a process or method or a different way of thinking. Even when I think I don't have anything to say (that's different) she provides an insight into my value system and how to overcome some barriers in my mind
I have been seeing Carmen for therapy for over a year now, and the experience has been incredibly transformative. She has significantly helped me improve my confidence and work through my trauma, for which I am forever grateful. Carmen is not only understanding and empathetic but also exceptionally kind. I appreciate how she simplifies complex concepts, encourages me to see things from various perspectives, and ensures that I feel completely comfortable discussing any topic. Her punctuality is another aspect of her professionalism that I greatly value. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate and effective therapeutic support.
Carmen has been a phenomenal therapist, guiding me through anxiety, loss, and personal growth with immense empathy and expertise. Her approach is nurturing yet empowering, providing tailored strategies that foster healing and resilience. Carmen creates a safe space where all thoughts are validated, promoting self-awareness and strength. Her dedication to my well-being has been transformative, encouraging me to embrace challenges with confidence. I highly recommend Carmen to anyone seeking meaningful progress in their personal development journey.
Carmen is an incredible listener and a great professional to talk to about the stuff that's going on and even challenges you in a way that you can overcome your obstacles so that you can improve on the areas where you need more help and support. She is incredibly knowledgeable and very intuitive and has all that is necessary to guide you on your process. Truly great experience and a wonderful human being to talk to overall.
I have been working with her for almost one year. She is the best therapist I ever had. She understand me and suit my need. I feel really comfortable with her. She is kind and warm. This help me coping with my situation. Her advice are valuable.
I have had at least 2 psychiatrists and 5 psychologists since I was 40 (last 22 years) helping me deal with depression, bipolar outbursts of anger and sleep issues. I know most of what I need to do but always wondered "Why cant I do it?". Better Help and Carmen allowed me to have regular BITES of counselling so we could focus on one issue at a time. Carmen did not just listen but would give me BITE sized actions to focus on. She was very flexible if our conversations varied from the first topic (which I thought was important) to get to the KEY issues behind the topic. WHY?? I'm a highly educated trainer and analyst and Carmen is one of the most educated and investigative counsellors I've had. She has extensive knowledge about many issues and topics (not just my depression, but family stress issues/reactions, death/loss, and transition to older age)
Her easy way of communication with deep empathy has made me really believe in the power of therapy. I was about to quit this method when I met her and I'm really glad I did.
I have undertaken private therapy in the past and did not get on with my therapist. I signed up for better help and the first therapist I found was not a good match. I wanted to give up with therapy again but then I was paired up with CARMEN! She is a breath of fresh air. I go into my sessions excited to see what we get on with. She makes my emotions feel validated, she helps me dig deeper into my emotions to figure out my triggers and she helps me work on different activities that can change the way I navigate these emotions! All I can say is she is amazing! Carmen sends me weekly worksheets which are so so helpful! They can really change your thinking and they practically act like a second session every week with how helpful they are. She has helped me so much in such a short amount of time I couldn’t recommend her enough
Wonderful, warm, empathic, and knowledgeable.
Carmen is very empathetic and easy to talk to as she has a laid back approach that makes you feel comfortable , while remaining professional. She is very good at challenging you without forcing you past what you are ready to deal with so she really meets you were you're at. I feel like she genuinely cares about helping me which I haven't always felt with other therapists in the past.
Carmen is a great listener and very good at following your topics. Even at times, when you just unload many things within a short amount of time, she helps to keep a structure and guides you gently back to drop very thoughtful and often deep questions that make you think and reflect. Exercises are spot on and by the end of every session it always feels like "But we just started and time is already over?".
She is very kind and supportive and wonderful.
Carmen has such a warm aura about her. As soon as our first video call started, I immediately felt comfortable and relaxed. She‘s so good at letting the conversation evolve naturally and leading you to a right conclusion. My feelings are always validated, but I get taught how to deal with them healthily. I feel like she truly understands and cares to help, she doesn‘t just give you textbook answers.
