Charlie aims for straightforward, practical sessions. She listens without judgement and helps people make sense of strong emotions. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small steps a person can try between meetings.
How Charlie works
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds influence current relationships. She also uses client-centred ways of working that focus on each person's own pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, DBT skills and Emotionally-Focused Therapy tools may be used where they help to change thinking patterns, regulate emotions, or improve closeness in relationships.
Charlie has supported people through grief, chronic illness, career change and the stresses of everyday life. She works with issues such as body image, eating concerns, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related struggles. Sessions also cover practical communication problems, separation and blended family challenges.
Therapy can be delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. People begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support options
How attachment, CBT and emotion work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways with partners and friends and can reduce repeated arguments and distance.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses straightforward tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours that ease anxiety and low mood.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and express core feelings and then change how they relate to others. It is often used when intimacy, trust or closeness feel difficult.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Charlie will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals and preferences. That means discussing what feels most relevant and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, so people can fit therapy around work, family or mobility needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or times when writing helps to organise thoughts. These options make it easier to keep continuity and to try therapeutic tools between sessions.
