Welcome to Michelle Charlesworth Therapy
A confidential space to explore the thoughts, feelings and challenges in your life
Are you looking for someone to talk to?
My name is Michelle and I provide therapeutic counselling in London, Brockley, SE4 and surrounding areas as well as online throughout the UK.
Therapy in a safe, comfortable and private setting
Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, but it's important to find a good fit. Whether you're dealing with recent trauma, life challenges or unresolved past experiences, I'm here to offer support.
With a number of years experience, I specialize in helping adults work through childhood trauma, domestic and sexual abuse, PTSD, anxiety and depression. I also work with parents/care-givers whose children have experienced sexual abuse, offering guidance and support during these challenging times.
I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation.
In crisis and need immediate help? Call Samaritans on 116 123 or go to your nearest A&E Department. Need immediate support? Text SHOUT to 85258 24/7 to chat by text.
I offer a warm, friendly and confidential space to enable you to examine your life and make new, meaningful choices within it. I will work alongside you to understand your perspective of the world and the challenges you face.
Sometimes there are things in life that we struggle with, maybe there has been a recent event that has caused you to look for some additional support or maybe unresolved past experiences affect you now and you feel ready to address this.
I am a person-centred therapist, which means I have a empathic, non-judgemental approach and provide emotional support. Together we can explore your situation in a way that leads to fresh perspectives- and perhaps a new understanding of yourself. Counselling isn't about giving you solutions or advice, but empowering you to make your own changes
Speak in Confidence
Therapy takes place in a safe space, where you can meet with someone who will listen with sensitivity and empathy – and without judgement. In the therapy space thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and in confidence.
A problem shared
Trouble with a relationship; anxiety or panic attacks; mood swings or depression – many people face difficulties in their everyday lives that can be hard to get on top of. Therapy gives us a set of tools we can use to help gain a better understanding of what’s causing these problems – and how you can move towards managing or resolving them.
Make better, healthier new choices
Working together I can help you gain greater insight into the difficulties you are facing, help you understand why you act or react to them the way you do, and see how you can start to make better, heathier choices moving forward.
What issues can therapy help with?
People come to me for help for a wide range of issues. Here are a few of the more common difficulties that can be supported through therapy:

Fees & Location
I offer Face to Face sessions at my office in Brockley SE London and I offer online sessions to anyone living within the UK.
My sessions are for 50 minutes, usually taking place on a weekly basis or fortnightly and cost £70 per session. I offer a 15 minute telephone consultation to answer any questions you may have and to gain a better understanding of your needs. Note that if you want to cancel a session I require 48 hours' notice: otherwise you will still need to pay for any sessions missed. I accept cash and bank transfer.
Get in touch
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about how therapy works, or to arrange an initial assessment appointment. This enables us to discuss the reasons you are thinking of coming to therapy, whether it could be helpful for you and whether I am the right therapist to help.
You can also call me on 07760 202422 if you would prefer to leave a message or speak to me first. I am happy to discuss any queries or questions you may have prior to arranging an initial appointment.
All enquires are usually answered within 24 hours, and all contact is strictly confidential and uses secure phone and email services.
