About Charlie

Charlie Cuthbert is a counsellor with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain and addiction. Charlie also supports those facing family conflict, intimacy concerns, eating and anger issues, and the strain of life changes.

She describes therapy as a place to make sense of feelings and reactions. Sessions focus on listening, reflection and working at each person’s pace. Charlie aims to help clients find perspective, motivation and calmer ways of coping.

Her approach draws on client-centred principles that put the person’s experience first. She also uses ideas from attachment work and cognitive behavioural techniques to look at patterns and practical ways to respond. Therapy can include exploring past hurts, noticing current triggers, and trying manageable strategies for change.

Charlie has four years of experience supporting people through both sudden and long-term difficulties. Her background includes work with trauma, compassion fatigue, ADHD, body image and chronic illness. She emphasises simple, clear steps rather than jargon, and adapts sessions to what each person needs.

Starting therapy may feel hard and she acknowledges that. Charlie aims to make the first steps straightforward and respectful so people can begin to untangle painful or confusing issues and move towards the life they want.

How online work uses client-centred and practical methods

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and following each person’s lead. It helps when someone needs space to be heard, to understand their feelings, and to find their own direction for change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can be useful for understanding trust, closeness and repeated relationship problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviours. It often helps with anxiety, low mood and practical problem solving.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful. That way the approach can be adjusted as therapy progresses and feels more useful for the person in front of her.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, childcare and travel. Some formats are better for shorter check-ins or when video is difficult, while others suit deeper conversations. Discussing practical needs before the first session helps shape appointments that fit everyday life.
