About Patrick

Patrick Carter offers support for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, low self-esteem and depression. He creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them and consider practical steps forward. Patrick uses listening and curiosity to help people find their own resources.

He draws on Existential therapy to help people reflect on meaning, choice and responsibility in their lives. That approach can help when facing life purpose questions, midlife changes or feelings of isolation.

Background and approach

He also uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the person’s experience central and pace conversations around what the client finds most useful. Patrick is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and also holds NCPS accreditation. He has three years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom.

His background includes supporting people with parenting concerns, family problems, adoption and foster care issues, and fatherhood questions. He also addresses more specific worries such as commitment problems, infidelity, guilt and shame, social anxiety and phobia, and issues linked to fertility and divorce.

Sessions focus on clear, practical discussion rather than jargon, and aim to help people develop ways to cope with change and build confidence. People can expect straightforward conversation, careful listening and collaborative planning. Patrick works in English and accepts international clients.

Therapy uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support

How his approaches work online

Existential therapy helps people look at meaning, choice and responsibility in their lives. It is useful for clients facing life-purpose questions, midlife shifts, isolation or big decisions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience, offering empathic listening and gentle guidance to help people find their own solutions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patrick will discuss goals and preferences and together with the client choose the style that fits best. That collaborative process means the approach can shift as needs change over time. Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and reading non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick reflections or when messaging fits a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel. Registered or accredited professionals can provide consistent therapeutic support even when meeting remotely, and many people find online formats help them sustain regular contact and progress.
