About Carmen
Carmen Roberts offers help for people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, trauma and grief. She focuses on the patterns that keep problems alive and on small changes that make life feel more manageable. Carmen writes plainly and aims to help people feel more in control of day-to-day decisions and relationships.
Carmen has a degree in Therapeutic Counselling from the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body, CPCAB. She also holds a Diploma in Criminal Psychology and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She uses approaches that look at early attachment and long-standing patterns, as well as more focused ways to set short-term goals. In practice this means talking about how relationships and past experiences shape current feelings. Sessions also include practical steps to reduce anxiety, manage cravings, or improve communication.
Alongside private practice, Carmen volunteers with Cruse Bereavement Care and has experience working with a police force, an NHS eating disorders unit, and in employee well-being. That background informs how she supports people facing loss, trauma, or complex emotional issues.
Carmen encourages clients to try ideas, notice what helps, and change course when needed. She aims to build a steady working relationship so people can tackle difficult feelings, repair important connections, and find clearer ways forward.
How Carmen's approaches work in online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current emotional responses and connection patterns; it can help when fear of abandonment or difficulty trusting others affects day-to-day life. Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on recurring patterns that come from past experiences and aims to make those patterns clearer so you can make different choices. Solution-Focused Therapy centres on practical, short-term goals and simple steps you can try between sessions to see what changes help most.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Carmen will listen to your concerns, try small ideas, and adjust the way she works as you go. The plan evolves based on what you find useful and what fits your goals and preferences.
The original profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by saving travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day. It also lets people connect when local services are limited. When you arrange a first session, discuss which way of meeting best suits your needs and routines so sessions are practical and manageable.
