Charlotte White

I work with young people aged 18 – 25. If you would like help with the challenges you are facing, please get in contact. I can provide a safe non-judgmental space to reflect on emotional distress so that you can move forward in a mindful and positive way. I am a psychodynamic counsellor with 8 years of experience working with young people. I understand that making the first steps in reaching out for help takes courage. Be reassured that we will work together on your therapeutic journey towards your goals. My aim is to help you grow and develop and build your emotional wellbeing.

Psychodynamic counselling is a supportive process which helps you understand how your current feelings and behaviour are shaped by your past experiences. In your first session we can explore how you see yourself, how you see the world and your place in it. Sessions will be led by you, and we will work at your pace and focus on the difficulty you would like help with. 

I have worked in charity and in educational settings. I have extensive experience of working with bereaved young people.

I am fully qualified and BACP registered. I have an MSc in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy with Children and Adolescents. I have particular interest in the 18 – 25 age group and the challenges that this life stage brings.

I offer open-ended or short-term therapy. I have some reduced fee spaces for people who are out of work, on a low income or studying full time.

Before our first session I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation, this gives you an opportunity to briefly outline your current circumstances and enables me to consider if I might be able to help you.

In our first session we would further explore what brings you to counselling at this time. The session would last 50 minutes. This session will be a therapeutic assessment in which we will identify what you want from the counselling. In this session I will outline the practicalities for our work so that we can work both safely and ethically.

We would then have a chance to think about how you feel about us working together.
