About Charles
Charles "Charlie" Manasseh is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship and family difficulties. He also helps those struggling with sleep, parenting pressures, self-esteem and life changes.
Charlie focuses on understanding how a person's history and current life fit together. He listens for patterns that keep people stuck, including attachment or abandonment wounds and problems with control or commitment. Sessions are conversational and paced to the client's needs.
People can expect frank, straightforward conversations about what feels hard right now. Charlie uses client-centred ways of working to put the client's views at the centre. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape present feelings and relationships.
Practical day-to-day problems are a common focus. He talks through workplace stress, social anxiety, codependency, guilt and shame, and issues around self-love and men's concerns. He also supports people thinking about life purpose and what matters next.
Sessions aim to increase awareness and practical coping rather than offer quick fixes. Charlie invites clients to reflect on recurring patterns and to try out different responses between sessions. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking route.
How Charlie's approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the client's views at the heart of each session. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what is said and helps people clarify their own priorities. This approach can help with stress, low mood, confidence and deciding what matters next.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how early relationships and past patterns shape current feelings and actions. It can help identify repeating dynamics in relationships, struggles with attachment or feelings of emptiness. Sessions using these ideas often focus on patterns that repeat across different situations.
Finding the right blend of methods is part of the process. Charlie will work with the client to decide which approach or combination fits best, based on their goals and how they respond in early sessions. That choice is reviewed as therapy progresses and may change if different needs emerge.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping therapeutic contact when travel is difficult. The biography does not specify the exact session formats he offers, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to sustain regular contact and to practise coping strategies between meetings.
