About Charlotte

Charlotte Crawford is a counsellor with a background in nursing and many years of caring professional work. She holds BACP registration and has practised as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist for 12 years. Charlotte helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction issues and grief in straightforward, practical ways.

She draws on an integrative approach tailored to each person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a frequent starting point, combined with mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy where helpful. Motivational Interviewing and attachment work also shape her sessions when relevant to a client's story.

Charlotte has direct experience supporting people affected by trauma and abuse, substance use concerns, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues such as low self-esteem, coping with life changes, ADHD-related challenges and the strain of caregiving. Her background includes nursing and work with people with alcohol and drug issues, which informs a practical focus on day-to-day coping skills.

In sessions she aims to create an open, non-judgemental space for talking through concerns. She explains techniques in plain terms and shares tools clients can keep using after therapy ends. The goal is to help people make changes that fit their lives and values.

Charlotte is based in the United Kingdom and offers help to international clients as well. To begin, people follow the site's Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and book according to the counsellor's scheduling options.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes by building daily habits linked to what matters most.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is commonly used for stress, anxiety, depression and for managing compulsive or addictive behaviours through step-by-step strategies.

Charlotte treats finding the right approach as a joint process. She will discuss what feels most useful and adapt techniques to a person's goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape a plan that fits day-to-day life rather than a fixed programme.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to keep continuity across time zones for international clients. It also means quieter check-ins that do not require travel and options for shorter or more frequent appointments where helpful. Confirm the current session formats with the counsellor before booking to ensure they meet practical needs.
