About Otis
Otis Carey is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has 12 years of post-qualification experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain and anger. He also supports those facing depression, trauma, grief, sleep problems and parenting pressures.
Otis approaches sessions by treating the client as the expert in their own life. He looks for practical strengths you already have and uses those as a starting point. Conversations are direct and focused on real-life problems rather than jargon.
In the room he will help you name what is happening, notice patterns, and try small, testable changes. That can mean learning ways to calm down in the moment, changing unhelpful routines, or practicing different ways to talk to others. Progress is usually step by step and based on what feels useful to you.
He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address issues like anger, addiction and trauma. Sessions often cover skills for coping with intense feelings, improving communication, and managing sleep and mood. The aim is practical tools you can use between sessions.
Otis has worked with a wide range of concerns over more than a decade. He accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first meeting to agree goals and the way forward.
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Otis uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping you manage strong feelings and change unhelpful patterns. One common approach teaches practical skills for recognising triggers, slowing down reactions and practising new responses; this helps with anger, anxiety and stress. Another method works on communication and behaviour change by testing small steps between sessions, which can improve relationships and reduce conflict. Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss different methods and together you will choose what fits your needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process aims to match techniques to the problems you want to address, and to adjust them as you try things out. Confirm the exact online formats before booking because the biography does not list session types. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let you practise skills in real-life settings and follow up quickly after difficult moments.Areas of expertise
