About Charlotte
Charlotte Lucas is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS and has five years of experience as a practising therapist. Charlotte offers a calm, respectful presence and aims to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes.
She takes an integrative, person-centred approach. That means sessions begin from where the person is, not from a fixed plan. Charlotte listens with empathy and aims to build trust so people can talk about difficult topics such as trauma, grief or relationship strain.
Background and approach
Practical tools are used when they suit a person’s goals. Cognitive behavioural techniques can help with unhelpful thoughts and low mood. Mindfulness practices support breathing, grounding and managing anxiety in the moment.
Sessions can also explore deeper patterns that affect relationships and self-esteem. This slower, reflective work draws on psychodynamic ideas and helps people notice repeated themes in their life and choices. Charlotte offers a straightforward style and focuses on what someone wants to change.
She will work with each person to set realistic steps and check progress along the way. The aim is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centred work focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. Online sessions let people talk through their concerns while the therapist reflects and clarifies, which helps build trust and direction.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills for managing them. It suits issues like anxiety, low mood, sleep and unhelpful thinking and adapts well to video or phone sessions where worksheets and behavioural tasks can be reviewed together.
Mindfulness practice helps people notice physical sensations and breathing to reduce stress in the moment. Short guided exercises and grounding techniques can be delivered effectively through audio, live chat or video check-ins.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try methods that suit the person and change them if needed.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a camera feels too demanding. Live chat and text messaging make shorter check-ins and written reflections easy to fit into a busy day. Together these options give flexibility while keeping therapy focused on progress.
