Charlotte O'Neill , BACP

Charlotte O'Neill is a UK-based therapist and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom. She works from a person-centred, client-led perspective and blends elements from existential and solution-focused approaches to meet each person's unique needs.

Charlotte draws on a variety of therapeutic modalities and adapts her work to suit individual circumstances, ensuring a non-judgemental space where people can explore the issues that are affecting them. Over the course of her practice she has supported people dealing with anxiety, life changes, work-related difficulties and depression, helping them find clearer ways to move forward and improve day-to-day functioning.

Aware that beginning therapy can feel daunting, Charlotte works at each person’s pace and follows the client’s agenda, treating them as the expert in their own life while offering steady support and gentle guidance. She communicates in English and brings a compassionate, practical focus to sessions, aiming to help clients build resilience and workable strategies for the challenges they face.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Sessions

Charlotte uses client-centred therapy to create a supportive environment where the client’s experience and goals guide the work - this approach helps with issues like low self-esteem, anxiety and adjusting to life changes by emphasizing empathy and active listening.

Existential therapy is used to explore meaning, values and personal responsibility, offering a space to address questions around identity, loss, and transitions in life; it can be helpful for those facing major life decisions or feelings of emptiness.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on identifying strengths and practical steps toward change, making it well suited to clients seeking goal-oriented support for problems such as work stress or relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Charlotte collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging provide flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to attend from locations that suit them and to select formats that fit their schedules. Working with licensed professionals in this way makes regular, consistent therapy more achievable for many people.
