About Charlotte
Charlotte Crawford BACP is a counsellor who uses cognitive behavioural methods alongside mindfulness and acceptance-focused tools. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and life changes. Charlotte has 12 years of direct experience using CBT approaches and brings a background in nursing and work with alcohol and drug issues.
She explains therapy in plain terms and aims to build a non-judgemental space. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use outside of appointments.
Background and approach
Charlotte also supports those experiencing compassion fatigue, parenting strain and challenges linked to ADHD. Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness practice and attachment-aware thinking to help people notice patterns and make different choices. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try alternative behaviours.
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is ambivalent about change. Charlotte tailors her approach to each person rather than applying a fixed model. She combines talking, practical exercises and simple mindfulness practices to suit what someone needs in the moment.
Her nursing background informs a straightforward, caring style. People come to her for help with a wide range of concerns beyond the main areas, including bereavement, family problems, caregiver stress, first responder issues and coping after disaster. Sessions are offered in English and she works with international clients.

How ACT, attachment work and CBT translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, and then focus on values-based actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress and problems where avoidance gets in the way of living well.Attachment-Based ideas look at how early and current relationship patterns shape reactions and emotional needs. This can help with self-esteem, caregiving stress and difficulties trusting others.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviours. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, coping with loss and addictive patterns.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which approaches to try. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted as progress and needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls suit longer therapeutic conversations and exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat is useful for shorter check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules, travel, or when being on camera is not wanted.
