About Charlotte
Charlotte Clayton is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and LGBT concerns. Charlotte lists additional focus areas including blended family issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, and problems around trust and infidelity.
She prefers straightforward conversations and helps clients talk through what is happening now. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. She pays attention to thoughts, feelings and patterns that get in the way of daily life.
Charlotte uses approaches that encourage acceptance of difficult feelings while helping people take steps that matter to them. She also draws on client-centred ways of listening and DBT skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. These methods are used to manage anxiety, low mood, relationship conflict and distress after trauma.
Her experience includes supporting people through breakup, divorce and the practical strains of family life. She also helps with caregiver stress, body image concerns and issues related to control or dissociation. Clients who have had previous therapy sometimes return for follow-up work.
Charlotte asks new clients to complete an initial matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not accepted.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and the stresses of changing family roles.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and understood. It supports people who need a steady space to talk things through and make sense of relationship or identity concerns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving responses to conflict. Skills training can help with distress after trauma, problems with control, or overwhelming anxiety.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options with the client and agree a plan based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may change as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around everyday life, for example by saving travel time, allowing a shorter check-in between commitments, or avoiding the need for camera use on some occasions. Registered or accredited professionals often offer online work in ways that help people keep therapy practical and usable.
