Charlotte Kirk, BACP

Charlotte Kirk is a UK-based therapist who has worked as a qualified professional since 2018 and brings focused support to people facing grief, stress, anxiety and the everyday challenges of life. She has spent time supporting college and university students as well as adults navigating relationship difficulties, career transitions and shifts in self-esteem.

Her training began in Person Centered Therapy, which strengthened her empathic listening and capacity to create a non-judgemental space for reflection. She later completed advanced training in Solution-Focused Brief Therapy with leading experts in the field, an approach that helps clients identify practical steps toward change and build on their existing strengths. Charlotte explains that this method encourages people to recognise hope, reinforce personal resources and move toward meaningful goals.

Charlotte works from a belief that difficulties often contain opportunities for renewed purpose, and she aims to help clients reconnect with their abilities and achievements. By offering a supportive setting, she helps people reflect, refocus and explore choices that can strengthen self-trust and add clarity to daily life. Charlotte holds BACP credentials - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and welcomes conversations about how her approach might fit individual needs.

Solution-Focused and Person-Centered Online Support

Charlotte integrates Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Person Centered approaches into her online practice. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy is goal-oriented and practical - it helps people identify small, achievable steps toward change and builds on existing strengths to address issues such as stress, anxiety, low motivation and relationship challenges. Person Centered Therapy emphasises empathic listening and the client’s own resources - it supports exploration of feelings, grief, self-esteem and life transitions by creating a compassionate space for reflection.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Charlotte works collaboratively with each person to decide what fits best. She will discuss goals, preferences and needs and adapt her methods to suit the client, helping to shape sessions in a way that feels meaningful and manageable.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access a licensed professional without travel, and they allow therapy to continue through life changes or when in-person appointments are not convenient.
