Charleen Raymond, BACP

Charleen Raymond helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, depression and relationship difficulties. She supports clients coping with big life changes and offers practical ways to manage panic, worry and feelings of isolation. Charleen works in English and accepts international clients. She holds BACP registration and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

Her approach is integrative and grounded in existential and humanistic ideas. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her. Conversations explore values, meaning and everyday choices alongside skills to reduce overwhelming feelings. She keeps language straightforward and practical so people can use what they learn between meetings.

Charleen often draws on attachment ideas to look at how relationships shape current patterns. She also uses client‑centred listening to make space for each person's perspective, and cognitive behavioural tools when worries and habits feel stuck. The mix is tailored to the issue and the person's preferences.

She pays attention to social context and cultural background when that affects how someone feels or makes choices. This includes money worries, experiences of prejudice, and the pressures of caregiving. Her aim is to offer a down‑to‑earth, non‑judgemental place to talk and to try out different ways of coping.

Practical details are discussed at first contact. Sessions can take different formats and are arranged to suit each person's circumstances.

How Charleen’s approaches work online

Attachment‑based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence present feelings and interactions, helping people understand why they react a certain way and try new ways of relating. Client‑centred therapy focuses on warm, non‑judgemental listening so the person feels heard and can explore their own solutions at their pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers straightforward techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, panic and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Charleen will talk through the different methods and the reasons for trying one or a blend. Together they decide what matches the person's goals, preferences and the problems they want to tackle, and adjust the plan as work progresses.

Online work offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and use a more traditional session format. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text‑based messaging support shorter check‑ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people keep therapy going around work, caring responsibilities or travel.
