About Charles
Charles Bennett welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by worry, stress or life changes. He writes in a straightforward way and aims to make the first steps easier for those who are nervous about starting therapy. Charles is named here so you know who you will meet.
Charles holds BACP registration and has three years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. He offers support for common problems such as stress, anxiety and depression. He also helps people coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, and the grief that follows loss.
In sessions he works from a client-centred stance, treating the person’s experience as central to the work. He also uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, particularly when people want practical ways to manage anxious thoughts and reduce distressing habits.
Charles aims to help people identify strengths and build on them. He talks through practical steps you can try between meetings, and helps set small, manageable goals. The focus is on making therapy feel useful in day-to-day life.
Taking the first step can feel daunting and Charles seeks to make that step less heavy. He supports people who want a calmer, more manageable day-to-day, working together to find approaches that fit each person’s situation. Best wishes Charles
How his approaches work in online therapy
Charles uses client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy in a way that is easy to understand and apply to daily life. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping the person lead the conversation so they feel understood and heard. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and introduces practical strategies to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right way of working is a shared process. Charles will collaborate with each person to decide which approach or mix of approaches fits their goals and preferences, and will adjust plans as progress is made.
Many people find online counselling helps them fit sessions into a busy life because it can reduce travel and make scheduling easier. Please confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online sessions can still include practical tasks, thought records and short between-session exercises that support progress without claiming particular outcomes.
