Charles Bennett, BACP

Charles Bennett is a United Kingdom based therapist with three years of professional experience and holds accreditation from BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), a recognised UK professional body. He works with adults across a range of concerns, offering practical and compassionate support for stress, anxiety, addiction issues, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and depression.

Charles approaches each person as the expert of their own story, helping them discover and build on existing strengths to address current challenges. His work includes supporting people through addiction recovery, coping with traumatic experiences, managing persistent worry and low mood, and processing bereavement and loss. He places emphasis on collaboration and respect for each individual’s pace and goals.

Seeking change often requires courage, and Charles aims to provide steady, nonjudgmental guidance through that process. He focuses on helping clients identify practical steps and develop skills that support longer term wellbeing, while acknowledging the emotional work involved in healing and growth.

Client-Centered and CBT Support Online

Charles offers client-centered therapy, a person-focused approach that emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for each individual’s experience. This approach helps clients explore their feelings and values and supports growth by building on existing strengths.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and related behaviours. CBT is often used to address anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with coping and recovery from addictive behaviours.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Charles will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts the balance of client-centered and cognitive-behavioural techniques to suit each person’s circumstances and aims.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving clients flexible options to access support from home or other convenient locations. This adaptability can make it easier to maintain regular appointments around work, caregiving, or other commitments, while allowing therapists and registered professionals to deliver consistent support over time.
