About Charlotte

Charlotte Parker works with people on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and self-esteem using a client-centred way of working. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.

Charlotte offers straightforward, talk-based counselling. She listens to what matters to the person in front of her and helps them make sense of difficult feelings. Sessions focus on day-to-day problems such as sleep, eating, parenting strains, work stress and relationship problems.

Her practice includes support for people dealing with trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar difficulties, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues such as anger, intimacy-related concerns, ADHD, and addiction to drugs or alcohol. Practical matters like coping with life changes, career decisions and loss are also common topics.

Charlotte uses client-centred therapy, which means the client directs the conversation and the counsellor follows their concerns. The aim is to build understanding and help people find ways to manage symptoms and pressures that feel workable in daily life.

She also attends to areas often linked to relationship and identity questions, including attachment, abandonment and blended family challenges. People who have specific concerns about kink, BDSM or alternative sexual culture will find these topics acknowledged in her practice.

Sessions are conducted in English and Charlotte accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions run on a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How client-centred approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the moment. The counsellor follows the client’s lead, listens without judgement and reflects what is said to help make feelings clearer. This approach is useful for problems such as anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns and dealing with loss.

The therapist will work with the client to test different ways of working and agree what helps most. Deciding on a therapeutic approach is collaborative: the client’s needs, goals and preferences shape the plan and adjustments can be made as work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel by removing commute time. It also allows for shorter check-ins when that suits the day, and for audio-only conversations if video would be difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt pace and structure to individual schedules and practical constraints.
