About Charlotte
Charlotte Kirk is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of practice since 2018. She has worked with college and university students and other adults to help them manage grief and everyday life challenges. Charlotte uses a warm, listening approach to help people notice their strengths and take small steps forward.
She began with Person-Centred Therapy, which developed her active listening and empathy skills. That work underpins how she listens and responds in sessions.
Background and approach
Later she trained in Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, which shaped a practical, goal-orientated way of working. In sessions she helps people identify clear, manageable goals and build on what already works in their life. Conversations focus on practical next steps rather than long reviews of the past.
She aims to help people spot their own resources and confidence as they make changes. Charlotte regularly addresses stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports people with career questions, relationship strains, ADHD and LGBT issues, among other concerns.
Her practice includes coaching-style work when clients want structured goal-setting. Sessions are straightforward and collaborative. She encourages reflection and small experiments between meetings.
The overall aim is to boost self-trust and help people find clearer direction and purpose in day-to-day life.

How solution-focused work fits into online therapy
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) looks at what is already working in a person's life and builds on those strengths. It uses short, practical steps and clear goals to create change, which can suit stress, anxiety, career moves and relationship questions.Person-Centred approaches place emphasis on being listened to and understood. That kind of active listening helps people feel heard and able to reflect before choosing next steps, which pairs well with practical goal work.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide what feels most useful. This collaborative planning helps tailor sessions so they fit your pace and priorities.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls let you have live conversations with visual cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier if you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing reflection and flexible catch-ups between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments.
