Chanel Muharrem, BACP

Chanel Muharrem uses a Client-Centred approach to place the person at the heart of therapy. She focuses on listening and following the pace set by the client. Chanel aims to help people feel understood and to find practical ways to improve their day-to-day wellbeing.

She works with worries such as anxiety, low mood and low self-esteem. Relationship and intimacy-related concerns are included, along with grief, loss and life transitions like retirement or significant birthdays. Addictions, trauma and work-related stress are also part of her practice.

Chanel spent time working in the City with professionals facing high pressure. She later supported students, academics and staff in higher education. Those roles gave her insight into the stresses of corporate and academic life and how these pressures affect wellbeing.

Her counselling experience includes work with Mind, supporting people with bereavement, anxiety and depression. Chanel is a BACP counsellor, which signals membership of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists. She brings four years of practice to her sessions.

In sessions she aims to offer a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through what matters most to the client. Chanel focuses on helping people identify what they want to change and on finding achievable next steps. She encourages small shifts that can improve everyday life and build resilience.

Client-Centred Work Online and What to Expect

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience. The counsellor listens deeply and reflects what they hear, helping the client to find their own answers. This approach suits people facing anxiety, low mood, relationship worries or life changes because it is paced around what the person feels ready to talk about.

Chanel’s way of working is collaborative. She will help clients decide which approach fits best by talking about their needs, goals and preferences. Together they shape sessions so each meeting feels relevant and manageable.

Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for quicker check-ins when needed. Different modes of session can suit different situations - for example, a shorter audio check-in can work well on a lunch break, while a longer conversation may be preferable when more time is available. The biography does not specify which formats are offered, so confirm the current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can adapt the practical details to help therapy fit into everyday life.
