Salome Carter, AASW

Salome Carter is a social worker and Child & Family Therapist with ten years' experience supporting adults and families through stressful life moments. She works in Australia and holds AASW credentials. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at helping people untangle what feels overwhelming and find clearer steps forward.

Salome helps clients understand patterns that keep them stuck. She offers parenting support, guidance around relationship and separation issues, and practical ways to manage anxiety, depression and major life transitions. Her work also covers trauma and abuse, grief, compassion fatigue and challenges linked to ADHD.

Her approach is collaborative and strengths-based. She uses evidence-informed and trauma-aware methods and adapts them to suit each person's needs rather than applying one fixed model. Sessions focus on making sense of what is happening and developing strategies that can be used between meetings.

People who feel overwhelmed, stretched by competing demands, or unsure about next steps tend to find her practical focus helpful. Therapy may involve building coping skills, working on communication and boundaries, or mapping decisions about relationships and career.

Salome aims for work that feels purposeful and relevant to everyday life. She works with each person to identify priorities and shapes sessions around those goals.

How evidence-based approaches guide online work

Salome draws on evidence-informed, strengths-based and trauma-aware approaches. An evidence-informed approach means using practices shown to help people manage symptoms and improve daily functioning, such as building coping skills and addressing unhelpful patterns. A strengths-based focus highlights what is already working and uses those resources to support change. Trauma-aware work pays attention to how past harm affects current thinking, feelings and relationships, and aims to move at a pace that feels manageable.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Salome collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs and preferences. Together they will review what feels useful and adjust the work as things change.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, family and schooling, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use approaches learned in sessions straight away in their daily environment, which can help skill-building transfer into real life.
