About Charndelle

Charndelle Basnett is a counsellor who blends practical therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety and parenting challenges. She uses straightforward approaches to make therapy feel understandable and manageable. Charndelle works online and by phone, and she offers live chat and text options for people who prefer messaging over calls.

She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts without being overwhelmed by them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small experiments to change them.

Background and approach

Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how early relationships affect current responses. Charndelle holds a First Class Bachelor's degree in Counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. She has three years of experience working with a wide range of concerns, including grief, depression, trauma, addictions and relationship or intimacy-related issues.

Sessions can focus on coping skills for daily life, better communication, managing parenting stress or recovering after a loss. She aims to keep sessions practical and focused on what people want to change. Conversations are paced to fit each person’s needs and energy.

People can choose single sessions, short-term work, longer pieces of therapy or open-ended support. Charndelle encourages clients to set small, achievable goals and reviews progress regularly to keep work relevant and useful.

Online support

Approaches that guide online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and making behavioural changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and trying simple behavioural experiments to reduce symptoms like low mood or sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with intimacy-related issues and communication problems.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will pick techniques from different approaches and adjust the plan as work progresses so that sessions stay relevant and practical.

Online therapy here offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversations. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is low. Live chat and messaging support quick check-ins or ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy going while balancing work, parenting or other commitments.
