Carlo Gittens

Professional Profile

Hi, my name is Carlo, and I am a fully qualified and BABCP-accredited CBT therapist working with Think CBT from south east London.

Life moves fast. It's normal to feel stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed. You might find that you don’t feel very present in your day to day life, as you get caught up in overthinking. You may feel like you just aren’t good enough and beat yourself up not doing things differently. If those feelings control your daily life, you aren’t alone, and therapy can help.

CBT can give you a framework to understand yourself better, and help you figure out where changes can be made. You can change the way you feel, by changing how you think and the actions you take. You can learn to maximise your strengths and develop healthy research-backed coping strategies to navigate life’s challenges and reconnect with what matters most.

You deserve a personalised approach to feel better. My decade of experience in NHS psychology settings has taught me you're the expert on you. I'll listen closely to understand where you are coming from. Together we'll build coping strategies tailored to your needs using CBT, compassion focused ideas, and other proven techniques. With validation, kindness, and non-judgement, and you'll feel empowered to make positive changes.

You've shown commitment by being on this website. I appreciate how challenging vulnerability when asking for help can be. You can reach out and I’ll meet that with care and curiosity to understand your difficulties. No judgment - just warmth and a genuine desire to support you. If it feels like we would be a good fit, together we'll find what works so you can move forward. I currently offer online sessions and aim to respond to emails within 48 hours. The next step is yours.
