About Charlotte
BACP. 7 years' experience. Charlotte Medlock works with people on depression, anxiety, relationships and family matters, as well as parenting concerns and grief. She also addresses self-esteem, confidence, attachment issues and trauma and abuse in her counselling practice.
Charlotte trained as a counsellor and has been practising for seven years. She has volunteered weekly at a local hospice since 2017, offering counselling and support to patients and their relatives. Her experience there informs her work with end-of-life and bereavement issues.
Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy. In sessions she focuses on listening and helping people make sense of how past experiences affect present feelings and relationships. She pays attention to attachment patterns to understand how someone connects with others.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and conversational. Charlotte helps people identify unhelpful patterns such as people-pleasing or control issues, and she works with clients on building self-esteem and clearer communication. Practical coping strategies and reflective discussion are both used as needed.
People who prefer a calm, reflective counsellor may find this style useful. She supports work on grief, family conflict, and life changes alongside longer-term exploration of self and relationships. To begin, readers are asked to follow the site process to complete a matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy is built around active listening and placing the client’s perspective at the centre of sessions. The counsellor offers empathy and reflection to help clarify feelings and choices, which can suit issues such as low self-esteem, stress and relationship concerns.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that come from earlier relationships and experiences. It helps people see recurring themes in behaviour and emotion, which can be useful for attachment issues, abandonment feelings and longstanding relational problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charlotte will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together they will decide which way of working to try first. Reviews of progress are built in and the approach can shift as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so readers should confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and everyday life. It can allow shorter check-ins, drop travel time, and let people join from a quieter place without needing to be on camera if that suits them.
