About Charleen

Charleen Raymond works on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes using an integrative, existential and humanistic approach. She is registered with the BACP and has three years of professional experience. Charleen describes her practice as down-to-earth and inclusive, and she aims to make counselling practical and accessible.

She helps people talk through everyday difficulties and larger life questions. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical ways to manage feelings and relationships. Charleen draws on several methods so she can work in ways that suit each person rather than following a single technique.

Her work often looks at attachment patterns, which can affect how people relate to others. She also uses client-centred and cognitive approaches to help with thinking patterns and emotional responses. Emotionally-Focused ideas are used when relationship feelings are central to the issue.

Charleen is comfortable discussing topics such as body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues and the strain of divorce or separation. She also addresses guilt, shame, isolation, life purpose and midlife concerns. Financial stress, multicultural issues and experiences of prejudice are included in her focus.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Fees vary with location and operate through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people are invited to use the Talk to a counsellor online button and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session.

How Charleen uses therapeutic approaches online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence current connections. Online sessions can use this approach to help identify repeating relationship patterns and find new ways of relating that reduce conflict and loneliness.

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what someone says so they can clarify their own thoughts and feelings. This approach is useful for building self-understanding and confidence over a series of conversations.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) examines unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and tests practical ways to change them. It is often used when stress, anxiety or panic attacks are getting in the way of daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Charleen will discuss options with clients and decide collaboratively which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. This is an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time decision.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the bio does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows therapists and registered or accredited professionals to work with people who live elsewhere or have limited local access to counselling.
