Charlotte Phillips, BACP

Charlotte Phillips is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She has three years of professional experience helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, low self-esteem or depression. Charlotte combines talking with creative and body-based practices to help people reconnect with their feelings and strengths.

Her style is gentle and down-to-earth. Sessions often mix conversation with creative expression and simple movement meditations. This can help people notice how emotions show up in their bodies as well as in their thoughts. Charlotte aims to make therapy practical and relatable so steps feel achievable.

She uses creative arts to open up new ways of saying hard things when words are not enough. Somatic practices are offered to help people become more aware of bodily responses linked to stress and trauma. Together these methods can support recovery from addiction and build steadiness after difficult experiences.

Charlotte believes the person in front of her knows their life best. She works alongside clients to identify manageable goals and small changes that fit day-to-day life. Sessions are paced to the individual and adapt as needs shift.

People considering therapy are invited to start with a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's availability. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Charlotte uses creative arts as one strand of her approach, inviting drawing, journalling or other forms of expression to help people name feelings that are hard to say. These methods can help with anxiety, low self-esteem and processing difficult memories by giving the experience a tangible form.

She also integrates somatic practices that focus on bodily sensations and gentle movement meditations. These techniques help people notice how stress and trauma appear in the body and offer simple ways to calm nervous system reactions and build steadiness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through what feels useful and adapt methods to the client's pace, goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasise talking, creative work or somatic exercises as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list exact session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit appointments into busy weeks, reduces travel time and makes it easier to keep regular check-ins. Some methods also translate well to remote work, for example guided movement exercises or creative prompts that can be done between sessions.
