Chanel Muharrem

Chanel Muharrem is a counsellor who works from a Client-Centred approach, putting each person at the heart of their therapy. She focuses on helping people find their own pace and set the agenda for sessions. Her BACP credential is shown as BACP, indicating registration with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists. Chanel is based in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English.

She helps people dealing with anxiety, low mood and low self-esteem. Relationship strains, intimacy issues and communication problems are part of her focus. She also supports people facing grief, bereavement and major life transitions such as ageing, menopause and retirement.

Chanel’s earlier work in the City exposed her to high-pressure professional environments. She later worked in academia supporting students, staff and academics. Those roles shaped her understanding of workplace and study-related stress and how it affects wellbeing.

Her counselling background includes work with Mind, providing bereavement support and help for people with anxiety and depression. She now combines that experience with private practice to help people manage life changes and emotional overwhelm.

In sessions she listens without judgement and offers empathy and kindness. She aims to help people feel heard and to discover practical ways forward. If someone is unsure whether counselling will help, she encourages a first step and works collaboratively to find what suits them.

Client-Centred counselling and online access

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on placing the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens with empathy and follows the client’s lead so the pace and topics are set by the person seeking help. This approach can be helpful for issues like low mood, self-esteem, relationship difficulties and grief.

The collaborative nature of this work means the therapist and client decide together what methods suit best. Chanel will help you identify goals and try ways of working that fit your needs and preferences. That collaborative process often starts with a conversation about what you want to achieve and how you prefer to work.

Practical advantages of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Some people find online sessions easier to attend around work or caregiving commitments, or simpler to include during a lunch break. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking to make sure they fit your routine and goals.
