About Charlotte
Charlotte Hughes is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years' experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief and life changes, and also offers support around issues such as addiction, self-esteem and trauma.
She uses a flexible, integrative approach that draws on several evidence-informed methods. That means sessions focus on practical steps and conversations tailored to what each person brings. Charlotte aims to help people notice patterns, try different ways of responding, and build coping skills that fit everyday life.
Charlotte's background includes former work as a nurse in the NHS. That clinical experience shapes how she understands the impact of physical health on emotions and relationships. She has supported people through chronic illness, surgery recovery, cancer treatment, chronic pain, CFS, MS and Long Covid related concerns.
She works with people affected by relationship breakdown, blended family issues, caregiving stress, end-of-life and hospice concerns, and first responder challenges. She offers individual and couples therapy and pays attention to attachment and communication patterns that affect closeness and conflict.
Sessions are grounded in practical conversation rather than abstract theory. Clients can expect collaborative planning, short-term techniques when useful, and longer work where problems run deep. To start, people select an online matching option and arrange an initial session to see how the approach fits their needs.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while managing difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in relationships and how they affect current closeness and conflict; it can help with intimacy, communication and repeated relationship difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person's own perspective and promotes open, non-directive conversation so clients feel able to explore what matters to them.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods as needed. This is a collaborative process and plans are reviewed together so the approach stays helpful as issues change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions fit into busy lives because they reduce travel time, can be scheduled around work breaks and may allow a shorter check-in when needed. If quiet surroundings or less screen time are useful, that can shape how sessions are arranged. Registered or accredited professionals offering online therapy can use these practical arrangements to help therapy work alongside everyday commitments.
