About Salome
Salome Carter is a social worker and child and family therapist with ten years' experience supporting people through stress, change and uncertainty. She works with adults and parents to address anxiety, relationship strain, grief and major life transitions. Salome uses a practical, warm and collaborative style so sessions feel focused and down-to-earth.
Her work includes counselling, parenting support, and complex family matters such as separation and family violence. She also helps people cope with overwhelm, compassion fatigue, career pressures and the challenges of caring for others. People come to her to make sense of patterns and to find manageable next steps.
Salome draws on evidence-informed, strengths-based and trauma-informed ideas and adapts them to each person. That means she does not rely on a single method but tailors practical strategies to what a person actually needs. Sessions often focus on building coping skills, improving communication and setting clearer boundaries.
Therapy with Salome can involve mapping unhelpful thinking and everyday habits, trying small behaviour changes, and rehearsing different ways to handle difficult conversations. She aims for work that is useful between sessions and makes daily life easier.
Her goal is a collaborative process where the person sets priorities and they work together on clear, achievable goals. To start, Salome helps people identify what they need from therapy and shapes sessions around those aims.

Approaches that guide online therapy
Salome uses evidence-informed, strengths-based methods that focus on practical steps and coping. Strengths-based work highlights a person's existing skills and builds on them to manage stress, relationship challenges and caregiving demands. Trauma-informed approaches pay attention to safety, pacing and the impact of past events when working on grief, abuse or overwhelming life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with the person about their needs, goals and preferences and together they will choose which methods to try. This collaborative process helps shape sessions so they feel relevant and manageable rather than generic or overly theoretical.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into busy days and reducing travel time, which can help people sustain regular work on goals. If you are interested in online options, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. The focus will be on making therapy useful for everyday life through clear strategies, behaviour changes and regular check-ins.
