Background and approach
Sessions focus on the person in front of her, their priorities and what they want to change. She works at a pace that suits each individual and aims to build practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges. Her practice draws on different approaches so the work can match the issue.
That might mean focusing on here-and-now solutions, looking at emotional patterns rooted in earlier life, or using mindfulness to manage strong feelings. She has experience supporting adult survivors of sexual violence, abuse, trauma and post-traumatic stress. Charlotte follows the ethical framework of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and takes part in regular professional supervision and ongoing training.
She offers both short-term and longer-term options depending on what a person needs. Collaborative work is central to her approach. Together with clients she sets goals, tries practical steps between sessions, and reviews progress as therapy continues.

Online approaches that suit everyday life
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and helps clients find their own answers. It is useful for improving self-esteem, relationship concerns and general life stress.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelming feelings. It can help with anxiety, sleep problems and managing strong emotions by building steady, moment-to-moment awareness.
Charlotte will work with each person to decide which approach or combination fits best. That choice is made together, based on the issues, goals and how someone prefers to work. The plan can change as therapy progresses and new needs emerge.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when travel is difficult. Phone sessions fit into a short break or when bandwidth is low. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options give flexibility so therapy can be shaped around work, family and other life demands.
