Carly Tewkesbury-Witham, BACP

Carly Tewkesbury-Witham is a person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings over four years of clinical experience to her practice. She offers a non-directive, gentle, and affirming style that supports people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, low self-esteem, and major life transitions.

Carly has experience working with neurodiversity and provides sensitive support for clients dealing with trauma and abuse, eating-related concerns, parenting and family issues, anger, career difficulties, depression, and ADHD. She also works with young adults and those exploring self-love and communication difficulties, tailoring her approach to the individual needs and strengths each person brings.

Her practice is grounded in the belief that people are the experts in their own stories and that existing strengths can be mobilised to address what feels challenging. Carly aims to create a reassuring therapeutic space where people can explore motivations, build confidence, and find practical ways to cope.

Carly holds BACP credentials - member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which signals adherence to recognised professional standards in the UK. She encourages those considering therapy to reach out when they feel ready and offers support to make the first steps feel more manageable.

Client-Centred Care and Online Support

Carly Tewkesbury-Witham practices client-centred therapy, an approach that places the client at the heart of the process. This method focuses on active listening, empathy, and creating a non-judgmental space so clients can explore feelings and goals at their own pace - it is often used for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life transitions.

Her non-directive and affirming style complements client-centred work by allowing individuals to lead sessions and identify the changes they want to make. This approach supports people who prefer a collaborative, strengths-based path and can be especially helpful for those navigating neurodiversity, grief, or identity-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Carly works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists may adjust methods over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Carly is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from home or elsewhere while tailoring communication style to what feels most effective for each client.
