About Charlotte

Counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Charlotte O'Neill has three years' experience working with people in the United Kingdom. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career questions, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and intimacy-related issues. Charlotte works in a conversational, person-focused way and keeps sessions grounded and practical.

Charlotte uses client-centred ideas to help people talk through what matters to them. She also draws on existential thinking to look at meaning and choice in people's lives. Solution-focused techniques are used when someone wants short-term, goal-oriented work and clear next steps.

Her approach begins by listening closely to what someone says is causing difficulty. She asks simple questions and reflects back what she hears. From there she and the client agree on what to focus on and how to work week to week.

Charlotte notes that people respond differently to counselling, so she checks in regularly about what is and is not helpful. She keeps language straightforward and avoids jargon. Practical coping ideas and small, manageable actions are offered when they fit the client's aims.

Sessions are conducted in English. Charlotte is listed with the BACP and practices in the UK. She asks people to use the site process to complete a short questionnaire and arrange a first session.

Approaches used in online counselling and what they do

Charlotte uses client-centred work which focuses on listening closely and reflecting back what the person says. This approach helps people feel heard and clarify what they want to change.

She also uses existential ideas which look at questions of meaning, choice and responsibility. This can help when life changes or uncertain periods leave someone asking what matters next.

Solution-focused work concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals. It is useful when someone wants short-term direction and concrete actions to try between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods that fit the person's needs. Adjustments are made as the work progresses so the plan stays relevant.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, or to have shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people avoid travel time and choose quieter surroundings that suit them.
