About Charlotte

Charlotte Crawford is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of focused experience as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist. She works with adults on common problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and parenting concerns, and supports people coping with grief, trauma and low self-esteem. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Charlotte draws on a range of practical approaches to meet everyday problems. She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try different actions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and focus on chosen values. Mindfulness practices are used to reduce reactivity and bring attention back to the present.

Her background includes nursing and years of work with people who have alcohol and drug issues. That experience informs how she talks about dependency, relapse risk and recovery routines. She also has experience supporting carers and people facing long-term health challenges.

In sessions she aims to be direct and practical. Conversations focus on small, manageable steps you can take between meetings. She explains tools and practices plainly, then helps you try them out in day-to-day life.

Charlotte also works with attachment-related concerns and relationship difficulties that affect parenting and family life. She can talk through communication problems, codependency, control issues and the strain of caregiving.

To begin, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Charlotte commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting entangled in them, then choosing actions that align with what matters. This can help when life feels stuck or when values conflict with anxiety. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical experiments to test and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals and what feels manageable. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust them as progress is made, so therapy stays relevant to everyday life.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy routine, for example by avoiding travel time, making it easier to schedule short check-ins, or allowing sessions during a work break. The focus is on practical strategies you can use between meetings to handle parenting strain, stress or addiction challenges.
