About Charlotte

Charlotte O'Neill is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, and life changes. She also helps with trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues and career matters, including related worries such as abandonment and attachment difficulties.

Her way of working is grounded in client-centred practice. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her. She listens to what the client wants to address and follows their pace rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Charlotte also uses existential ideas to look at meaning, choice and responsibility in people’s lives. That can help when someone is facing big life questions, losses, or changes that leave them unsure how to move forward. Solution-focused techniques are used to identify practical next steps and small changes that build confidence between sessions.

She draws on a mix of approaches rather than one single method, and she explains options clearly so people can decide what feels right. Therapy sessions are conversational and practical, with work aimed at easing day-to-day difficulties and improving coping skills.

Charlotte works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and can then schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Charlotte uses client-centred therapy to listen closely to what matters to each person and to work at their pace. This approach helps when someone needs a space to talk through current worries and daily stresses without following a preset agenda.

She uses existential ideas to look at big questions about meaning, choice and responsibility. That can be useful when life changes, losses or uncertainty are central concerns. Solution-focused therapy is used to spot small, practical steps that a person can try between sessions to build confidence and coping skills.

Finding the right mix of approaches is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss the different methods and agree on what to try based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. Adjustments can be made as work progresses so sessions remain relevant and useful.

The practical benefits of online sessions should be confirmed before booking, as specific session formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about the exact session formats available when arranging the first appointment to make sure they fit with daily routines.
