Hello, I'm Charlie

I'm a BACP registered therapist and am committed to working ethically, inclusively and my own ongoing professional development. 

Alongside being a therapist in private practice I work in professional learning and development, specialising in supporting peoples' mental health and wellbeing at work. This has provided understandings around the challenges of working within an organisational setting, the search for a purposeful career, and the impacts of workplace change, conflict and stress - all of which can be areas which may be examined within therapy. 

I also have experience working therapeutically with young adults in a Higher Education setting, and in a specialist trauma counselling service for people who had experienced sexual abuse. Before training as a therapist, I volunteered at the charity The Listening Place in central London who provide support to people who no longer feel that life is worth living.   

I've carried out research into the relationship between music and therapy, and have a strong interest in both of these as vehicles to understand our experience. My research has included examining the ways that therapy can facilitate a more creative, expressive way of being in the world.  

Feel free to ask about my experience and how I may be able to help by getting in touch. 

I’m a registered member of one of the main therapy professional bodies in the UK - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - and practice according to their ethical framework. 

I'm also fully insured, and registered with the Information Commissioner's Office  (ICO reference number: ZB388752).
