She adapts pacing and focus to each person’s needs. Common topics she addresses include attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, communication problems, control and impulsivity, and the emotional work of divorce or separation.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name strong emotions, then use that awareness to change how they relate to themselves and others; it can be useful for repairing connection and managing intense feelings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while taking steps toward personal values and goals; this works well for coping with life changes and chronic stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and helps people form safer, more predictable ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charlotte will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and make adjustments as things change.
Online formats offer real flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, continued practice between sessions, or simpler ways to follow up after meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while matching practical needs and schedules.
