About Charndelle

Charndelle Basnett is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults on common problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship concerns. She also supports people facing parenting strain, intimacy-related issues, addiction and workplace pressures.

Charndelle sees individual adults online. Her work often focuses on how relationships and attachment patterns affect everyday life. She uses practical conversation to help people name patterns, spot triggers and try different ways of responding when things get difficult.

She draws on several approaches to keep sessions focused and usable. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with unhelpful thoughts and behaviour patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports developing values-based goals and handling difficult feelings without getting stuck. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how past relationships shape current reactions.

Sessions can include short-term problem solving or longer-term work. Charndelle also offers single-session options for a focused check-in. She aims to make therapy relevant to day-to-day life, helping people manage parenting challenges, family conflict, sleep problems and caring responsibilities.

Practical steps are a regular part of her approach. That can mean simple behavioural changes, communication techniques or strategies to reduce overwhelm. She encourages clear, realistic goals and checks progress each session. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first appointment.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches work online

Charndelle uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test small changes in behaviour. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems by giving practical strategies to try between sessions.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on values and taking meaningful action even when feelings are hard. ACT can help with avoidance, managing strong emotions and deciding what matters most in parenting or relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charndelle will discuss your situation and preferences, and together you will decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning makes it easier to set clear goals and adjust the focus as progress is made.

Please confirm the session formats directly before booking. The original biography lists online, telephone and live chat options, but readers should check current availability. Online options can make therapy easier to fit into daily life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break, sessions without video if bandwidth is limited, or being able to attend from different locations when travel is difficult.
