About Charlotte
Counsellor and BACP member, Charlotte Chukwu-Baird has three years of experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self esteem and depression. She works from a counselling perspective in the United Kingdom and aims to help clients talk through difficult feelings and patterns that affect daily life.
Charlotte describes herself as using a person-centred approach at the core of her work. That means she places the client's experience at the centre of sessions and listens for what matters most. She also draws on other evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address specific problems when they are useful.
She explains that life events and past experiences can shape behaviour and relationships. In sessions she helps people reflect on those links and consider different ways of relating and coping. This includes looking at attachment concerns, abandonment and family of origin issues when they come up.
Her additional focus areas include communication problems, codependency, infidelity, divorce and separation, and multicultural concerns. She also works with people affected by chronic pain, illness or disability and with issues such as guilt, shame and forgiveness.
Charlotte asks clients to start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.
Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Charlotte bases her work on a person-centred approach, which focuses on what matters to the client and uses listening and reflection to clarify feelings and priorities. This approach suits people who want a straightforward, patient-led way of talking through problems such as low mood, anxiety or self esteem.She also uses other evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside person-centred work. These techniques can include practical methods to notice unhelpful thinking or to change patterns of relating, and they are often used for issues like trauma, grief, communication problems and codependency.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the process. Charlotte will work with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. The choice of approach is collaborative and may change as work progresses.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm which session types are offered before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use online appointments to provide continuity of care and to help clients keep therapy as part of everyday routines.
