About Charleen

Charleen Raymond is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with life changes and explores issues around money and finances when they affect everyday wellbeing. She presents herself as down-to-earth and non-judgemental, and speaks English in sessions.

She works in an integrative way, taking ideas from several approaches to suit each person. Much of her practice draws on existential and humanistic views, so conversations often focus on meaning, choice and the personal values that shape decisions. She uses cognitive and emotion-focused techniques where they fit the client's goals.

Sessions tend to be conversational and practical. Charleen listens for what matters most to a person, then helps them try small changes or different ways of thinking. That might include noticing how thoughts affect feelings, or looking at patterns in close relationships tied to attachment history.

Her background includes three years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. She highlights a working-class upbringing and aims to make therapy inclusive and accessible for people from many walks of life.

People come to her to talk through confusion, worry, guilt or shame, and to find clearer direction. If financial stress is part of the problem, she is willing to address money and financial issues alongside other concerns.

Before booking, people should check current session options and scheduling details to match their needs and circumstances.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current trust and intimacy; it can help people understand repeated relationship dynamics and feel less stuck. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the room, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and acceptance so people can find their own answers and build self-worth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and offers practical ways to test unhelpful beliefs and try different actions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Charleen will work with each person to identify which methods suit their needs and goals, and she will adapt techniques as the work progresses. This is a collaborative process that aims to balance understanding with practical steps.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current formats before booking since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Many people find remote work helpful for fitting sessions around busy days, keeping appointments when travel is difficult, or using shorter check-ins when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can use different ways to meet, so check the booking details to see which options are offered for scheduling and session length.
