About Charlotte

Charlotte Phillips is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She uses a blend of traditional therapy, creative arts and somatic practices to help people move through difficult times.

She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, confidence and depression. Charlotte pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and in everyday life. She helps people reconnect with their senses and with ways of expressing what feels hard to name.

Her work often includes creative expression and gentle movement alongside talking. These options can help people access feelings that words alone may not reach. Sessions are shaped around each person’s pace and preferences.

Charlotte describes her role as walking alongside clients rather than telling them what to do. She supports people to notice what already works for them and to try new ways of coping. That practical stance extends to problem-solving, self-care and rebuilding confidence.

She also pays attention to longer-term stresses such as caregiving and ageing related concerns, and to relational patterns like attachment and communication problems. People looking for help with addiction recovery, dissociation or the aftermath of relationship breakdown may find her approach useful.

Charlotte works in English and accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details via the site.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Charlotte uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic approaches alongside creative arts and somatic practices. One approach focuses on talking therapies that help people identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and try practical alternatives. This is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Another strand uses body‑focused or somatic work, which pays attention to sensations, posture and movement to help the nervous system settle and to access emotions that can be hard to name. Creative arts techniques invite drawing, movement or imagery to express material that may be difficult to put into words, which can support trauma work and addiction recovery.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that suit a person’s needs, goals and comfort level, and will adapt pace and tools as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑in appointments when needed. It can also help people maintain continuity when they are travelling or living overseas.
