About Charles
Charles "Charlie" Manasseh works from a client-centred approach that keeps the person at the heart of every session. He aims to make conversations straightforward and non-judgemental so people can say what they really feel. Charlie's tone is warm and practical, focusing on helping people find solutions that fit their lives.
He has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and carries the BACP credential. Over that time he has supported people with stress and anxiety, low mood and sleep problems, and difficulties with self-esteem and motivation. Relationship concerns and family strains are also areas he addresses in sessions.
Charlie pays attention to the less visible parts of a person’s experience. He is interested in attachment and abandonment themes, codependency, control issues and feelings of emptiness. He also works on communication problems, commitment worries and workplace stress when these affect everyday wellbeing.
Sessions aim to be a space for people to talk through guilt, shame, forgiveness and growing self-love. Charlie draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that influence the present. He combines that with a client-centred stance that follows the person's pace and priorities.
People who come for help can expect clear, down-to-earth conversation about coping with life changes and parenting strains. Charlie encourages practical steps alongside reflection so clients can try small changes between meetings.
How client-centred and psychodynamic work translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience first and focuses on listening, acceptance and collaboration. In practice this means the counsellor follows the client's pace, helps people put words to feelings and supports them to choose their own goals. It is often used for stress, low mood, self-esteem and relationship worries.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that may have started earlier in life and how they show up now. This approach can help when people notice recurring relationship difficulties, feelings of emptiness or issues connected to attachment and abandonment. It encourages reflection on how past experiences shape current choices.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about which methods feel most helpful and adjust the way sessions are run based on needs, goals and personal preferences. That process is collaborative and can change over time as issues shift.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins when needed. It can also let someone choose quieter surroundings, use audio-only when that suits better, or arrange sessions to fit a lunch break or a short commute.
