About Salome

Salome Carter is a Social Worker and Child & Family Therapist with ten years of experience supporting people through stress, change and uncertainty. She works with adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or unsure what needs to change. Her approach is warm and practical and aims to make therapy feel relevant to everyday life.

Salome draws on evidence-informed, strengths-based and trauma-informed ways of working. She adapts her work to each person rather than using a single fixed method. Sessions focus on making sense of what is happening and building practical strategies that can be used outside sessions.

People come to her for help with anxiety, depression, relationship and separation issues, parenting challenges and grief. She also supports those facing career stress, burnout and compassion fatigue. Salome has a particular interest in ADHD, abandonment and attachment issues, and in matters arising from adoption and foster care.

Her practice includes work with blended family issues, ageing and geriatric concerns, body image, caregiver stress, codependency and substance-related problems. She also helps people navigate the effects of trauma and abuse, natural or human-caused disasters, and major life transitions.

Sessions are collaborative. Salome helps clients identify patterns, set practical goals and try new ways of coping. Her aim is to leave people with tools they can use between sessions and a clearer sense of direction.

How different therapy approaches can fit online

Salome uses evidence-informed and trauma-informed ideas and a strengths-based way of working. Evidence-informed approaches draw on research to shape what happens in sessions, helping people learn coping skills, calm anxiety and manage mood. Trauma-informed work pays attention to safety, pacing and how past experiences affect current reactions, which can help with recovery after abuse, loss or major life events.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to find methods that suit their needs, goals and preferences. Together they explore what feels most helpful and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you want online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking since the biography does not list specific session types. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into busy lives easier, reduce travel time and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to include discussion about home routines, parenting challenges or workplace stress because the conversation can connect directly to everyday contexts.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
