Charlotte Medlock

Charlotte Medlock is a counsellor with seven years of professional experience. She combines private practice work with weekly volunteering at a local hospice since 2017, where she supports patients and their relatives. Charlotte focuses on practical, human conversations that make it easier to untangle difficult feelings and decisions.

She often sees people dealing with depression and anxiety, relationship strains, family conflict and parenting pressures. She also helps with self‑esteem, low confidence and people‑pleasing behaviours. Charlotte has a strong interest in attachment – understanding how past relationships shape current ones.

In sessions she aims to create a calm, non‑judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through. The emphasis is on listening and helping each person find their own answers. Change is approached step by step, at a pace that suits the individual.

Charlotte uses client‑centred work to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. These ways of working help with grief, life changes and long‑standing emotional patterns.

People who come to Charlotte often want practical next steps alongside reflective conversations. She supports people through end‑of‑life conversations in the hospice setting and in private practice, and she helps clients navigate the emotional challenges that come with change and loss.

How these approaches work for online counselling

Client‑centred therapy focuses on what you want to talk about and follows your pace and priorities. The counsellor listens closely, reflects back what she hears and helps you decide practical next steps that fit your life. This approach can help with stress, low mood, relationship worries and parenting strain.

Psychodynamic work looks at patterns that repeat in relationships and feelings that come from earlier experiences. It can be useful for understanding attachment, long‑standing emotional reactions and recurring problems that cause pain now.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss your needs and preferences and together you can try ways of working that feel most helpful. Goals and methods can be reviewed as therapy progresses so the plan stays relevant.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check‑ins when that suits your schedule. It can also let you access someone with hospice experience who understands grief and end‑of‑life conversations without needing to travel.
