About Charlotte

Charlotte Rothwell is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She holds BACP accreditation and works with people facing stress, anxiety, eating concerns, low self-esteem, career difficulties and parenting questions. Her style is warm and respectful, and she aims to create a calm space where people can talk through what matters to them.

She adapts conversations to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

Background and approach

Sessions often focus on understanding patterns in relationships and feelings. Practical steps and small changes are used alongside deeper reflection to help with day-to-day coping and longer-term goals. Charlotte uses several therapeutic approaches to suit different needs.

Attachment-based ideas help when relationships and trust are part of the problem. Client-centred work keeps the person's perspective central. Mindfulness techniques teach simple ways to manage stress and stay present.

Over her career she has supported people dealing with grief, trauma, sleeping problems, addictions and life transitions. She also helps those navigating LGBT issues, ADHD-related challenges and midlife concerns. Charlotte balances listening with offering tools so people can build confidence and move forward.

People meet her for short-term focused work or longer-term exploration. She encourages honest conversation about what the client wants to achieve and checks progress along the way. The aim is practical change that fits everyday life.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Charlotte draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early and current relationships affect feelings and behaviour. This approach can help when trust, closeness or repeated relationship patterns are causing distress. It focuses on understanding emotional ties and changing unhelpful patterns.

She also uses client-centred methods that put the person's experience at the heart of sessions. This means the counsellor listens closely and follows the client's pace and priorities, helping people find their own solutions. Mindfulness techniques are often added to teach simple ways to reduce stress and return attention to the present moment.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and agree on what feels most helpful based on the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans are reviewed as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for a face-to-face feel, phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day, while chat or messaging suit brief check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments, while still allowing for meaningful change.
