About Charlotte
Charlotte Lucas is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS and brings five years of direct therapy experience to her practice. Charlotte aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about parenting pressures, stress, anxiety and life changes without feeling judged.
She works in a friendly, down-to-earth way and leans on a person-centred attitude. That means she listens with empathy and treats each person as an individual.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the client and build on their strengths. Charlotte draws on several therapeutic methods to meet different needs. She uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thought patterns.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to reduce stress and improve day-to-day focus. Motivational interviewing supports people who want to find direction or change habits. Her background includes roles in support and charity organisations, giving experience with a wide range of concerns such as grief, trauma, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, compassion fatigue, and issues linked to adoption and foster care.
She also supports people dealing with career strain, chronic illness, and attachment or communication problems. Charlotte aims to work collaboratively and respectfully. She helps people set realistic goals and find practical steps to manage worries and parenting demands.
The tone in session is warm and non-judgmental, with a focus on what clients want to achieve.

Therapeutic approaches and online working
Charlotte often uses client-centred work which focuses on listening and building a trusting, respectful relationship. This approach is useful when someone needs space to be heard and to make sense of their feelings.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. CBT can be practical for anxiety, low mood, parenting stress and patterns that keep problems going.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to help reduce day-to-day stress and improve attention. These practices can support people who want simpler ways to manage intense feelings or become less reactive.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process, and the therapist works collaboratively to decide what fits best. Clients and therapist look at goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adjust the plan as they go.
Online therapy here is delivered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for a session similar to in-person work, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging suits brief updates, reflective notes between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
