Charlotte Crawford, BACP

Charlotte Crawford is a Scottish psychotherapist whose career spans more than four decades of caring professional work, including 12 years specifically practising as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist. She is also qualified to counsel children and young people and draws on a background in nursing and extensive experience supporting people with alcohol and drug issues.

Her practice focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, build self-esteem, address addictions, process trauma and abuse, and cope with grief and loss. She adopts an integrative approach that is tailored to each individual's needs, combining Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Transactional Analysis, humanistic methods, mindfulness practices, vagus nerve techniques, elements of NLP, and Acceptance and Commitment style work.

Charlotte aims to provide an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and practical skills can be developed. She seeks to equip people with tools they can use independently to support ongoing wellbeing and personal growth. She encourages the courage it takes to begin therapy and regards that first step as an important move toward recovery.
