How Charlotte works online
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It uses practical exercises and simple techniques to test unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.
Mindfulness therapy brings attention to present-moment experience through breathing and simple awareness practices. It can be useful for managing stress and staying grounded during difficult moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and collaborate with each person to choose methods that suit their needs, goals and preferences. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses to make sure it continues to fit.
If you are considering online sessions, check which formats are currently offered before booking. Confirming options helps you pick what fits your routine - for example, sessions that do not use video can be shorter check-ins, while video sessions allow for face-to-face conversation. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel without needing an extra commute.
