Hello!
My name is Charlotte and I am the person behind Red Robin Counselling & Training Practice.
Why Red Robin?
The Red Robin birds are noticeable all year round. In Spring I see them as a sign of growth and new beginnings. In Winter they're one of the few birds to continue singing. I feel I am a reliable and consistent counsellor who is available through all seasons and for a range of concerns the client (you) is experiencing.
About me
I qualified as an integrative counsellor in 2016 and I continued my professional development by achieving the Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling in 2018.
Being an integrative counsellor means I work in a variety of ways. This means I am able to adapt to your needs in order to achieve the best possible outcome with you. I am able to work with people from the age of 12 years old, with no upper age limit and I can work with people experiencing a range of mental health concerns.

Previous Experience
