About Charlotte

Charlotte Rothwell is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with issues such as stress, anxiety, eating and food-related problems, self-esteem, career concerns, parenting and grief. Her practice also covers ADHD, addiction, relationship strain and life changes.

She uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of her. Sessions are conversational and focused on practical coping, clearer thinking and building daily routines. She aims to help clients make small changes that improve sleep, reduce worry and support healthier relationships with food and others.

Charlotte draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape present reactions. Client-centred methods are used to keep the session paced by the client, while psychodynamic thinking helps identify recurring patterns that cause distress. Mindfulness techniques are offered to manage intrusive thoughts and to calm the body.

In practice she helps people untangle guilt, shame and isolation and works with those facing midlife concerns, caregiving stress or serious illness in the family. She also supports people dealing with career crossroads and questions about life purpose.

Sessions are intended to be straightforward and practical. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and a first meeting to set goals. Fees vary with location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current reactions. Online sessions can be used to notice these patterns and try alternative responses to reduce repeated conflict and worry. Client-centred therapy keeps the session led by the client, so the pace and topics come from what feels most pressing. This helps people focus on practical steps they want to try between meetings. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple exercises to calm the body and mind, and to manage sleep and intrusive thoughts.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. That conversation helps decide whether to emphasise skills practice, exploring history, or steady check-ins for coping with ongoing stress.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online meetings can make fitting therapy into a busy household easier by avoiding travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone use audio only if they prefer less screen time, or choose guided exercises they can practise between sessions to build routines at home.
