Compassionate Support

“Taking the step to contact Charlie and begin therapy with her was one of the best things I've ever done for myself. I went from being an insecure and vulnerable teenager; unsure about counselling, to being an independent adult with a full time career, healthy relationship and optimism about the future. After being in counselling intermittently since age 13 I was fairly hostile to the idea of therapy but I decided to give private sessions a go as a last shot.

Charlie's holistic approach has enabled me to flourish and she has supported me in a safe and supportive environment. Additionally, having the freedom of knowing I don't have a maximum number of sessions means I felt able to build a trusting and professional relationship with Charlie where I could talk about anything. Ultimately my time with Charlie over the years has allowed me to change my life and develop in ways I did not think would ever be possible'.”

“I have been going through a very difficult time with many anxiety attacks brought on by outside factors. These were very frightening experiences which effected not only my physical health but my mental health. I became very emotional, unable to focus, lacked any real motivation to do anything. Things I am normally interested in were too much trouble. All this impacted on my family who persuaded me to seek help. As well as seeing my GP, my daughter wanted me to speak with a counsellor not something that appealed to me as did not really want to speak with a stranger in my then emotional state!

I reluctantly agreed and I am so glad I did. Charlie showed great patience and understanding of what I was going through. Initially, I was very emotional at the start but never felt embarrassed as we clicked right from the start of our weekly sessions which helped enormously. Over time we went through many events in my life which looking back with Charlie I had a clearer picture of what was making me susceptible to these anxiety issues. In the early days of our weekly sessions, I suffered a close family bereavement which could have been a setback but with Charlie’s help I got through it.

I have come through the difficult times and will always be grateful for her help. Good to know she is still at the end of a phone if I need to speak to her in the future. I have no hesitation in recommending Charlie and the benefits of speaking with a counsellor.”

“This lovely lady gave me my life back! It was the best decision I ever made in dealing with my anxiety.

From the very first session I found Charlie very easy to talk to. Her empathetic, caring and non-judgemental approach helped me to open up and develop a trusting relationship. She helped me get through a terrible time and deal with anxiety that was too big for me to move on from on my own. I trust her wholeheartedly and I am so thankful I found her.

I would highly recommend Charlie to anybody looking for counselling therapy. Thank you Charlie!
