About Charlotte
Charlotte Hand provides support for stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strains and low self-esteem. She also helps with sleeping problems, career worries, compassion fatigue and issues around intimacy. Charlotte works with people facing life changes and a wide range of family-of-origin and attachment concerns.
She uses a straightforward, collaborative style. Sessions focus on what matters now while also looking at past patterns that keep problems repeating.
Background and approach
Charlotte aims to make therapy feel manageable, pacing work to suit each person’s needs and building practical tools to cope between sessions. Charlotte holds BACP accreditation, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and follows its professional framework. She takes part in regular supervision and ongoing training to keep her practice current.
Her five years of experience include work with adult survivors of sexual violence, abuse, trauma and post-traumatic stress related difficulties. Therapy can be short term or longer term depending on what someone wants. Charlotte blends client-centred listening with mindfulness, psychodynamic thinking, solution-focused steps and trauma-focused work.
That mix means sessions can shift from exploring feelings to trying small experiments for change. People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space where the therapist and client decide goals together. Charlotte describes her role as supportive and practical, helping people move forward at a pace they find comfortable.
Her sessions are offered in English and take place online by a mix of video, phone and messaging options.

Online support
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that developed in earlier relationships and how they show up now. This approach can help with attachment concerns, repeating relationship problems and family-of-origin issues. Charlotte uses these approaches flexibly, and she will work with each person to decide what fits best based on their goals and preferences. Figuring out the right mix is a collaborative process and may change over time as progress is made.
Online work makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, people who find writing easier, or those needing flexible timing. Together these options offer practical ways to keep therapy consistent and accessible.
