About Chanel
Chanel Muharrem is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years of counselling experience. She uses a Client-Centred approach and focuses on issues such as anxiety, low mood, relationships, grief, work stress and life changes. Chanel helps people who feel overwhelmed by early-adult pressures like starting careers, changing relationships and low self-esteem.
She aims to put each person at the centre of the process. Sessions move at the client’s pace and follow the agenda set by the individual. This approach suits people who want space to talk and to make sense of their feelings without judgement.
Chanel has experience supporting people in high-pressure jobs and in academic settings. That background means she understands workplace stress, exam and study pressures, and the strain of balancing work with personal life. She has also worked with Mind providing bereavement and anxiety support.
Her practical focus includes coping with grief, relationship strain, career decisions, addiction concerns, family problems and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She often helps people deal with feelings of abandonment, attachment worries, codependency and loneliness.
Chanel describes counselling as a place to talk things through and discover what might help next. She encourages clear, practical steps alongside conversations about feelings. To begin, clients use the platform matching process to choose online therapy options and book a first session.
How Client-Centred counselling works online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens and follows the client’s lead, allowing the client to set the topics and pace. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and the stress of early-adult life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chanel will collaborate with the client to identify what feels most helpful, adjusting how sessions are run to match goals and preferences. The process is practical and collaborative rather than prescriptive, so adjustments are made as understanding grows.
Practical benefits of doing counselling online include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around study or shift work and to have shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. In general, therapists and registered or accredited professionals can adapt session length and frequency to suit study timetables, work commitments and personal routines.
