About Carlos
Carlos Calvet Ortin is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. He blends a person-centred outlook with wider therapeutic ideas to help people address loss, anxiety and low mood. Carlos speaks English and Spanish and has eight years of experience working in different settings.
He has spent much of his career supporting people who are grieving various sorts of loss. That can mean bereavement, the end of a relationship, losing a job, or the quieter losses that leave someone feeling adrift.
How Carlos works
Sessions aim to give space to name what has been lost and to understand how it affects day-to-day life. Carlos also works with stress, panic and social anxiety, as well as depression and problems with self-esteem. He helps people who feel isolated, stuck, or unsure about life purpose.
He is comfortable discussing men’s issues and challenges linked to identity and communication problems. His practice draws on client-centred principles while using psychodynamic and existential ideas where they help. That means sessions focus on the person’s immediate experience, while also looking at patterns and meaning that might sit underneath current difficulties.
Creativity and imagination are sometimes brought into the work, informed by his Fine Arts background. Previous roles include independent practice, Employee Assistance Programmes, charities, healthcare settings and schools. People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space where pace and direction are agreed together.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. The therapist offers warmth, empathy and non-judgemental listening so the client can explore feelings and choices. This approach helps with anxiety, low mood and problems with self-worth.Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility and how people make sense of difficult life events. It can help when someone feels stuck, questions life purpose, or is dealing with loss and major transitions. Psychodynamic ideas examine patterns from the past that influence current relationships and reactions, useful for understanding recurring difficulties and long-standing emotional pain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Carlos will discuss different ways of working and help decide what fits your needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy unfolds.
Online sessions can be offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone calls suit shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, and messaging can work well for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on what you want to achieve.
