Charlotte Kirk , BACP

Charlotte Kirk is a UK-based counsellor with six years' experience supporting people through grief and everyday life challenges. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and changes in career or relationships. Charlotte uses straightforward language and practical steps to help people feel steadier and more able to manage day-to-day pressures.

She began training in Person Centred Therapy, which shaped her listening skills and ability to follow a person's pace. Later she trained in Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, an approach that concentrates on small, realistic changes and building on what already works. This combination means sessions focus on understanding your experience and finding workable next steps.

Charlotte has worked with college and university students and other adults navigating loss, identity questions and life transitions. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, body image worries, ADHD and emotional difficulties connected to adoption, caregiver stress and attachment issues. Her practice includes LGBT concerns, relationship problems and coaching-style conversations about goals.

In a session she invites people to notice strengths, set clear goals and try practical experiments between meetings. Conversations aim to be hopeful and grounded, not overwhelming. If a particular approach isn’t helping, she adapts how she works to suit the person in front of her.

Charlotte is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. She offers sessions across the United Kingdom in English and does not currently take international clients.

How Solution-Focused Work Translates Online

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on finding small, practical steps that move a person towards their goals. It looks at what is already working and builds on those strengths to create change, which suits worries like stress, low mood and short-term life transitions.

Person‑centred listening complements that by giving space to be heard and understood. This approach helps when someone needs to make sense of grief, identity questions or relationship strain before deciding on next steps. Together these ways of working aim to be collaborative and action-orientated, focusing on what the person wants to achieve.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk through your goals and preferences and try methods that fit your needs. If something doesn’t feel helpful, she will adjust how she works so sessions stay practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let you use face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easy to check in between meetings or for brief coaching-style support. These options let people fit therapy around study, work and family life while working with registered or accredited professionals.
