Providing trauma-informed and neuro-affirmative therapy for children, young people and adults in Birmingham with online counselling available across the UK.
Safe, Supportive and Accredited
Counselling for Women
I’m Charlie, I am a qualified and accredited psychotherapist/counsellor based in Sutton Coldfield. Over the years my practice has evolved, and I now provide a private counselling service specifically for women, particularly women impacted by neurodiversity.
My integrative approach is trauma-informed and LGBTQIA+ affirmative. I offer bespoke therapy, tailored to each client and their needs. I have supported women for many years and bring a wealth of experience to the therapeutic interventions I provide.
Much of my work involves empowering women who struggle with anxiety, depression or low self-worth. I work with clients to help build their confidence and self-esteem, with empathy and acceptance. Sometimes, life gets too much and can feel out of control or overwhelming, I can help you untangle the chaos so you can see more clearly and make sense of where you are.
I can also help you identify challenges affecting your daily life, which may be connected to past events. Processing earlier experiences can help release pain, so the healing can start, enabling you to move forward.

“I worked with Charlie for a number of years, during which she supported me with a variety of issues including OCD, bereavement, family dynamics, and neurodiversity.

Charlie was a constant source of support for me through some challenging times. She helped me work through trauma and always provided practical tools, thoughts, and helpful readings to take away and apply outside of the sessions, ones that I still use today.
Charlie also helped me recognise that I am autistic and supported me through diagnosis, helping me come to terms with the identity whilst also sharing methods to help me cope.
Charlie always remembered things I had said to her, which made me feel as though she truly cared. Charlie’s support has been life-changing for me, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it.”
