Background and approach

Charlotte listens closely and helps clients spot what is already working for them. She aims to create space for hope and clearer priorities rather than dwelling on problems alone. Many clients come with relationship concerns, family strain or issues linked to trauma and abuse.

She also supports people dealing with depression, ADHD and identity matters including LGBT questions. Charlotte works with a wide range of life issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, and caregiver stress. In sessions she draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear goals and measure progress.

That method concentrates on solutions and the client’s preferred future rather than lengthy exploration of the past. Charlotte blends this with empathy and active listening from her Person Centred foundations. People who prefer a short-term, goal-oriented style tend to find her approach helpful.

She encourages practical experiments between sessions and checks in on what changes are taking place. The aim is to help people regain confidence, make choices and move forward with more clarity.

How solution-focused counselling works online

Charlotte uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients identify practical steps toward a preferred future. This approach focuses on what you want to achieve, highlights existing strengths, and breaks goals into small, manageable actions. It suits people who want concrete change and measurable progress rather than long, exploratory work.

Her practice also draws on Person Centred listening skills, which means sessions prioritise being heard and understood. That foundation supports the solution-focused work by helping clients feel steady enough to try new behaviours and experiments between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a way of working together. If something isn’t helping, adjustments can be made so the approach fits the individual better.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit short, frequent touchpoints or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family life.
