About Carlos

Carlos Calvet Ortin works with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem and depression using a person-centred, integrative approach. He is a BACP counsellor with eight years of experience based in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English and Spanish.

Carlos focuses on how loss shows up in a person’s life, whether that loss is the death of someone close, the end of a relationship, a job, or another meaningful change. He also works with panic attacks, social anxiety, isolation, communication problems and questions about life purpose. He aims to help people talk through what they are feeling and understand what matters to them now.

His practice draws on client-centred methods alongside psychodynamic and existential ideas. That means he listens for what each person needs and brings in different ways of working as useful. Sessions are practical and conversational, with space to reflect on feelings, patterns and personal history.

Carlos has worked in private practice, Employee Assistance Programmes, healthcare settings, charities and schools. He understands the stresses of moving to the UK and the particular grief and loneliness that can follow relocation. He also has experience supporting men who find it hard to ask for help.

He trained in counselling and psychotherapy and also holds a degree in Fine Arts, which he uses to encourage creative ways of thinking in therapy. To start, people are invited to explain their concerns and plan how to proceed at a pace that suits them.

How his therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Client-centred therapy places the person and their experience at the centre of the work. The counsellor listens carefully and follows what matters to the client, which can help with issues such as low self-esteem, anxiety and feeling stuck.

Existential work looks at questions of meaning, choice and responsibility. It can help when life purpose, midlife concerns or changes after loss are central to the problem.

Psychodynamic ideas focus on patterns that come from past relationships and early experience. This approach can be useful for understanding repeating difficulties, communication problems and long‑standing emotional responses.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Carlos will work collaboratively to decide what feels most useful based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the style as therapy progresses.

Confirm the session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Ask about language options and practical arrangements when you complete the matching questionnaire.
