About Carlos
Carlos Calvet Ortin is a BACP counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom with eight years' experience. He works with loss and its many forms, and with concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem and depression. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Carlos has worked across private practice, Employee Assistance Programmes, healthcare settings, charities and schools. That range means he is used to different kinds of pressure and life changes, including the emotional impact of moving to the UK and feeling cut off from family or community.
His main clinical stance is integrative, with a person-centred model at the core. He draws on client-centred, existential and psychodynamic ideas, choosing which elements fit the person in front of him rather than insisting on one method.
Carlos often brings creativity into sessions, using his Fine Arts background to help people access thoughts and feelings that are hard to say aloud. This can be useful when loss, identity or persistent worries feel stuck or confusing.
He also notes specific understanding of men’s issues and the ways cultural expectations can make it harder to seek help. In sessions he focuses on listening, exploring what matters to the person, and working at a pace that feels manageable.
Carlos holds a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and other advanced qualifications, and he frames therapy as collaborative work to look at feelings, patterns and next steps.
How his therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to you. It helps when someone wants a calm, respectful space to talk through anger, loss or low mood and to make their own decisions about next steps.Existential approaches look at meaning, values and life choices. These ideas can help when anger or frustration links to feeling stuck, questioning purpose, or facing big life changes.
Psychodynamic work pays attention to patterns that repeat in relationships and feelings that live just below awareness. It can be useful for longstanding difficulties such as chronic irritability, impulsivity or problems with self-worth.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Carlos treats this as collaborative: he will talk with you about what helps, test different ways of working and adjust as you go based on your goals and preferences.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking. The practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions into a busy week, shorter check-ins when needed, or choosing options that need less bandwidth or no video. These practicalities can make it easier to keep therapy part of everyday life while exploring anger, grief and related concerns.
