About Charlotte

Charlotte Chukwu-Baird works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self esteem and depression using a person-centred way of working and other evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience in counselling.

Charlotte describes herself as a counsellor who sees the person as the expert in their life. Sessions focus on talking through current problems and understanding how past experiences shape feelings and behaviour. She uses a person-centred approach to guide conversations and may draw on other methods as helpful.

Her work often covers attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with relationship issues such as divorce, separation and infidelity, and with family of origin difficulties.

Charlotte also addresses longer-term stresses such as chronic pain, illness and disability, and emotional responses like guilt, shame and forgiveness. She notes multicultural concerns as a focus and accepts the role culture can play in how people understand their difficulties.

Sessions aim to explore difficult feelings and reflect on how they influence behaviour. The approach is collaborative: she helps clients consider different ways of relating and coping, and works to find practical steps that feel manageable.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online counselling

Charlotte primarily uses a person-centred approach, which focuses on listening, reflecting back what is said and helping people make sense of their feelings. This approach helps with issues such as low self esteem, depression and the emotional aftermath of trauma.

She also employs evidence-based therapeutic techniques as appropriate, drawing on methods that aim to change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour or to process distressing experiences. These techniques can help with anxiety, grief and communication problems by offering practical ways to cope and reflect.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with the client to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences, and may adjust the approach over time as progress is reviewed.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not specify formats. Many people find that remote sessions can fit more easily into a busy week and reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid being on camera if that helps with concentration. Check the available session options when arranging the first appointment so practical arrangements match everyday life.
