About Charnė Buissinne
Charnė Buissinne is a psychotherapist and trauma counsellor with nine years of clinical experience based in the United Kingdom. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and draws on a background that includes work across private practice, hospital and GP settings including the NHS, educational environments, addiction recovery programmes, and the criminal justice system.
Her practice focuses on creating tailored therapeutic plans rather than applying a single method to every client. She supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and loss, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family difficulties, eating and intimacy-related issues, parenting and career challenges, and neurodiversity-related concerns such as autism and ADHD.
Charnė integrates several evidence-informed approaches to meet each person's needs. Her toolkit includes client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, trauma-focused therapy, and Internal Family Systems. This variety allows her to adapt interventions to a client’s strengths, goals, and stage of change.
She emphasizes a strengths-based view of resilience - believing people have the capacity to adapt and to create meaningful connections in their lives. In practice she aims to meet clients where they are, offer practical pathways forward, and support them in building more authentic and purposeful ways of living.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit for You?
Many people wonder whether online therapy can meet their needs. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes, online therapy is widely used as an alternative to in-person care and can effectively support the same kinds of work people pursue in a therapy room.
One major advantage is flexibility - individuals can connect in the way that best suits their schedule and comfort level, choosing between video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life or to continue work when travel or other commitments make in-person visits difficult.
Licensed professionals and therapists offer these remote formats, and clients may change therapists if they’d like a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, accessible route to consistent support and therapeutic progress.
