About Charlotte
Charlotte Kirk is a UK-based counsellor who has practised since 2018. She brings six years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief and other life changes. Charlotte holds BACP accreditation, which she uses alongside practical, goal-focused sessions.
She began training in person-centred ideas, which strengthened her listening skills and ability to follow what matters to each person. Later training in Solution-Focused Therapy shaped how she helps people identify small, useful steps toward change.
How Charlotte works
That approach concentrates on finding what already works and building from there. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at practical outcomes. Charlotte encourages clients to spot strengths, set realistic goals and try manageable experiments between sessions.
She also offers coaching-style support for career questions and self-esteem work. Charlotte often helps people dealing with relationship stress, family concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD-related challenges, and low mood. She tends to keep sessions calm and focused, offering clear ways to track progress and adapt plans when needed.
Her style is warm and direct. She works at a pace that suits each person and checks in regularly about goals. People who prefer short-term, solution-oriented work alongside compassionate listening are likely to find this approach helpful.

Online support options
Solution-Focused Work Online and Practical Support
Solution-Focused Therapy helps people pick out what is already going well and build on those moments. It focuses on small, achievable steps and clear goals, which can help with stress, anxiety, low mood and coping after loss.Person-centred ideas inform her style too, emphasising listening and following a person's priorities so sessions feel tailored and respectful. Together these approaches aim to be brief and directed while staying warm and understanding.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charlotte will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide whether to focus on short-term solutions, longer exploration, or a mix of both. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, live chat suits quick check-ins and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility so people can choose what fits their routine and comfort.
