About Charlie
Charlie Cuthbert is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, grief and loss, depression, addictions and LGBT concerns. Charlie also helps with intimacy-related difficulties, eating concerns, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes.
She uses practical conversation to help people make sense of difficult feelings. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, understanding reactions, and finding small ways to change day-to-day life. Charlie aims to help clients notice what is getting in the way and try evidence-informed steps to feel steadier.
Her work draws on attachment-based ideas alongside client-centred principles. That means attention to how relationships and early experiences shape current responses, while keeping the person at the centre of sessions. Techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy inform specific strategies for mood, anxiety and emotional regulation.
Charlie offers a straightforward way of working. She will listen, reflect what she hears, and suggest practical exercises to try between sessions. Meetings often include exploring thoughts and behaviours, practising new coping skills, and looking at patterns in relationships.
People come to her for help with complex, overlapping problems including trauma, addiction, ADHD and long-term illness. Charlie encourages gradual progress and checks in on what is useful as therapy continues.
How her approaches adapt to online work
Charlie draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how current relationships and past connections affect feelings and behaviour; this helps with relationship problems, intimacy issues and patterns of avoidance. She also uses client-centred methods that keep the conversation focused on the person's experience and priorities, which helps people who are unsure where to begin. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) provides practical tools for addressing anxiety, low mood and unhelpful thinking patterns, often with exercises to practise between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Charlie works collaboratively to decide which methods match a client's needs, goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust the way she works as therapy progresses so the plan fits what the person wants to achieve.
If you are thinking about online work, confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work or other commitments. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and phone or video can be chosen to suit quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth or not using video. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use these flexible formats so that therapy fits into everyday life without added travel.
