Charleen Raymond, BACP

Charleen Raymond is a UK-credentialed counsellor with 3 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. She works with a wide range of concerns including attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, communication and control problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, loneliness, questions of life purpose, midlife challenges, financial worries, multicultural concerns, panic attacks, and experiences of prejudice and discrimination.

Practicing in an integrative way, Charleen blends approaches rather than relying on a single method, with a particular emphasis on existential and humanistic perspectives. This means she focuses on helping each person explore meaning, values, and personal choice while tailoring techniques to the individual - combining practical strategies with deeper reflective work to meet what someone needs in the moment.

Charleen holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which identifies her professional affiliation in the United Kingdom. She draws on her working-class background to offer down-to-earth, inclusive, and nonjudgmental care, aiming to create a space where people from any income, identity, or background can be heard and understood. Charleen accepts international clients and provides therapy in English.

Approaches that guide Charleen's online practice

Existential Therapy invites exploration of meaning, choice, and personal values. It helps people facing uncertainty, life transitions, or questions about purpose by encouraging reflection on what matters and how to live in line with one’s values.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing a warm, empathic space where the therapist follows the client’s lead. It supports self-discovery, confidence, and relationship work by prioritizing understanding and acceptance while the client explores their own solutions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for managing anxiety, panic, and mood concerns by teaching skills to cope with immediate symptoms and build longer-term resilience.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Charleen works collaboratively to identify what best fits a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. She integrates methods as needed so the process feels tailored and responsive.

Online therapy with Charleen is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from wherever someone is located and to choose the format that best supports their needs.
