Carlos Calvet Ortin, BACP

Carlos Calvet Ortin is a BACP accredited counsellor and psychotherapist based in London, recognised by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has built a practice focused on helping people navigate profound experiences of loss, whether that involves the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, relocation, job loss, or other significant life changes. He offers a supportive space to explore how these losses affect daily life and personal meaning.

Carlos works with a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, loneliness, death anxiety, feeling stuck, communication difficulties, identity questions, obsessive thoughts, and miscarriage. His clinical experience spans private practice, Employee Assistance Programmes, healthcare providers, charities, and schools. He also supports people who have moved to the UK for the first time and who may be coping with feelings of alienation or the grief of being distant from family and community.

At the heart of his work is an integrative, person-centred approach. He draws on Client-Centred Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, selecting methods that fit the individual rather than imposing a single model. This flexible stance aims to meet each person where they are and to explore experience in ways that feel most relevant to them.

Carlos holds a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, a Level 4 Advanced CBT Diploma, a Certification Program in Advanced Trauma, PTSD and Dissociation, and a Level 6 Certificate in Therapeutic Supervision. He also brings a background in Fine Arts to his practice, believing that creativity and imagination can help access unconscious material and support self-discovery. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and he is experienced in working with men who may struggle to seek help due to cultural expectations of stoicism or fears about appearing weak.

Throughout his practice Carlos aims to provide a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can take time to examine their concerns, move at their own pace, and consider new ways of moving forward.
