She helps people develop ways to cope with pain, rebuild trust, manage anger, and make decisions during transitions.
People who choose her often want direct help with emotions and relationships. She encourages straightforward discussion and practical next steps. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy aims to identify and name core emotions and attachment patterns that drive relationship behavior. In practice this means noticing how people react to each other and helping them speak about feelings more directly, which can be useful for relationship issues and repeated conflicts.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small actions that move a person toward those values. It teaches simple exercises to stay present with difficult thoughts and to act in ways that matter, which helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's perspective and uses reflective listening and open questions to deepen understanding and self-direction.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Charlotte will work with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines tools from EFT, ACT, CBT, and DBT as appropriate and checks in about how the work is going so adjustments can be made together.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make regular work around school or caregiving easier. If you have questions about how sessions are scheduled or what to expect online, the matching questionnaire and initial scheduling step will clarify the available formats and timing.
