About Charlotte
Charlotte O'Neill is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and difficult life changes. She uses a person-centred approach and works at each person's pace, offering a steady presence while clients talk through what is troubling them.
Charlotte is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. She draws on client-centred, existential and solution-focused ways of working and adapts these to each person's situation. Sessions focus on the concerns you bring and on small, practical steps you can try between meetings.
Her work is straightforward and practical. She listens without judgement and reflects what she hears so people can see their options more clearly. This can help with issues such as low mood, confidence and problems at work or in relationships.
Charlotte has three years' experience working with people around trauma, abuse, intimacy concerns and family-related stress. She also supports people dealing with chronic health problems, caring responsibilities and the particular strain of coping with natural or human-caused disaster.
People who are nervous about starting therapy will find a gentle style and an emphasis on collaboration. She encourages clients to set the pace and agenda, and to build goals together that feel achievable in everyday life.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy emphasises the client's own perspective and choices. In practice this means the counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps people explore what matters to them. This approach can support concerns like low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship worries.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and what a person wants to change. Sessions often identify simple actions to try between meetings and track what works, which can suit people needing short-term, goal-focused support.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. Together they will review what helps and adjust the approach as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, care duties and travel. It can also mean shorter check-ins, quieter timing, or avoiding the need to travel to an appointment, depending on how sessions are offered.
