Charlotte Bermingham, BACP

Charlotte Bermingham is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She brings four years of practice to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief and parenting challenges. She also supports work on self-esteem, coping with life changes and recovery from trauma and abuse.

Charlotte uses a humanistic, person-centred stance that puts the client's experience first. Sessions aim to offer non-judgemental listening and steady empathy so people can talk through what matters most to them. She combines this with ideas from attachment, mindfulness and psychodynamic thinking when helpful.

In the room she will help you notice patterns in relationships and emotion. Conversations may look at early attachments, recurring thoughts, or unhelpful coping habits. Practical steps and short-term goals can be added when you want clearer direction or problem-solving support.

People come for a mix of concerns. Charlotte lists areas such as anger, eating issues, compassion fatigue, ADHD, career questions and relationship communication problems. She can also focus on blended family issues, chronic illness, bereavement and separation when these are part of the difficulty.

Her work can be short term or longer term, depending on what you want to achieve. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Sessions are offered in English and international clients can be considered.

How core approaches guide online work

Charlotte draws on attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape current feelings and reactions, which can help with anxiety, relationship difficulties and abandonment worries. Client-centred practice focuses on listening without judgement and following what matters most to the client, useful for building self-esteem and making sense of life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide which ideas to use. This is a collaborative conversation and plans can change as work progresses.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so check the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a break. It can also suit people who prefer talking without being in the same room as the counsellor. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt attachment and client-centred techniques for remote sessions to keep the focus on what the client wants to address.
