About Charnė Buissinne
Charnė Buissinne is a UK-based psychotherapist with nine years of professional experience who combines clinical training and practical work across multiple settings to support people through stress, anxiety, addiction, grief and life transitions. She has worked as a psychotherapist, psychologist and trauma counsellor in private practice, hospitals and GP surgeries including the NHS, educational settings, addiction recovery programmes and within the criminal justice system, bringing a wide-ranging perspective to each case.

Her approach is informed by an array of therapeutic models so she can shape bespoke care for issues ranging from trauma and addictions to relationship, family and identity concerns.

Approaches that guide online therapy
Charnė draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to explore feelings and goals - this approach supports people seeking greater self-understanding and personal growth. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured method that helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, often used for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another tool in her practice; it zeroes in on emotions and attachment patterns to help repair relationships and strengthen emotional bonds.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Charnė works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and effective for the individual.
Online therapy sessions are offered by registered professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, maintain continuity of care, and access support from wherever the client is located within the therapist’s service area.
