About Charles
Charles "Charlie" Manasseh is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family issues, low self-esteem, depression, sleeping problems, parenting strain and coping with life changes. Charlie names guilt and shame among the concerns he supports people with.
Charlie uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. He invites people to talk through what is happening now and how their past shapes current feelings. Conversation is aimed at noticing patterns, making sense of difficult emotions and finding clearer options for day-to-day life.
He often draws on client-centred ways of working to place the client's experience at the centre of sessions. That means listening for what matters most to the person and following their pace. Psychodynamic ideas are also used to look at long-standing patterns, attachment and early relationships that can fuel shame, guilt or self-doubt.
Practical concerns are part of the work. Charlie helps people look at how coping strategies are working, and where small changes could ease stress or improve sleep and relationships. He also supports conversations about forgiveness and self-worth without promising outcomes.
Sessions are offered in English and Charlie does not accept international clients. The site uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time; confirm current session options before booking. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first appointment.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experience. The therapist listens closely, follows what the client brings to the session and helps them clarify their feelings and choices. This approach is useful for addressing shame, self-esteem and immediate relationship issues.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how early relationships and unconscious patterns shape present behaviour. In practice this means talking about recurring feelings, attachment styles and past experiences that contribute to guilt or emptiness. It can help people see why certain situations trigger strong reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charlie will discuss what helps most and decide together with the client which ideas to try first. That collaborative process lets the client steer the pace and focus of sessions according to their goals and preferences.
Confirm current session options before booking since the biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about practical arrangements so sessions fit into everyday life and commitments.
