About me
I'm known to most people as Charlie and I have worked full-time as a psychotherapeutic counsellor since 2014 as a Bereavement counsellor in a Hospice and latterly in private practice. I have achieved Accreditation from the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am experienced in working with adults and young people, both working with individuals and facilitating therapeutic groups. Trained as a Humanistic, Person Centred psychotherapist, I also draw upon other counselling theories and creative approaches as required. The main emphasis of my approach is on the trusting, non-judgemental relationship between client and therapist, working together, enabling you to feel comfortable to share what's going on for you.
I am currently offering face to face, telephone and Zoom appointments, I am able to offer early evening appointments online. In order to benefit from the telephone or zoom sessions, you will need to be able to find a private space where you can talk openly for the duration of the appointment.

Approach
Person-centred counselling is one of the humanistic approaches. It was founded in the 1940s by the American psychologist Carl Rogers who believed that, given the right conditions, a person can reach their full potential and become their true self, which he termed ‘self-actualisation’. This process is innate and accessible to everyone.
To help you achieve self-actualisation, as a person-centred therapist I will offer:
unconditional positive regard (UPR) – accepting and valuing you
congruence - being honest and transparent in how I experience you and your world
empathic understanding – seeing your viewpoint
When you attend sessions you’ll be encouraged to bring your own issues to the session – the counselling is led by you and not directed by me.
Many clients, with no prior knowledge of counselling, believe that the counsellor will sort their problems out for them. A person-centred counsellor will help you to explore your own issues, feelings, beliefs, behaviour, and worldview, so you can become more self-aware and achieve greater independence. Ultimately finding acceptance of yourself and making decisions that support your well being.
