Carly Donovan, BACP

Carly Donovan is a UK-credentialed therapist with three years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy challenges, and parenting concerns. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her training and standing within the counselling profession in the United Kingdom.

Carly approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to fit individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. Her work often focuses on restoring self-esteem, improving communication in relationships, and helping clients manage symptoms such as panic, social anxiety, or obsessive patterns.

She also offers focused support around commitment and intimacy issues, the impact of infidelity or jealousy, parenting transitions, and challenges related to autism and Asperger syndrome. Carly frames therapy as a collaborative process and aims to help people take practical steps toward a more fulfilling, happier life. She is available to guide clients through the first courageous step of seeking help and to provide steady support as they work toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy is grounded in listening and understanding. In this approach Carly prioritises the client's perspective, offering empathy and acceptance while helping people explore feelings and make choices that align with their values. It is useful for concerns such as low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and emotional overwhelm.

Existential Therapy invites clients to examine meaning, responsibility, and personal freedom. Carly uses this approach to help people facing life transitions, questions about identity or purpose, and challenges tied to commitment and relationships. It can be particularly helpful when someone wants to explore deeper values and long-term goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Carly works collaboratively with each client to identify which methods feel most helpful, adjusting the focus as needs and goals evolve. This collaborative process ensures therapy remains practical and tailored.

Online sessions offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. Carly provides support via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access registered professionals without lengthy travel. These options allow clients to choose the format that best suits their schedule and communication style while maintaining continuity of care.
