About Chanel

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience, Chanel Muharrem helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and grief using a Client-Centred approach. She places the person at the centre of the work and supports them to set the agenda and pace.

Chanel focuses on everyday pressures as well as deeper relational difficulties. She helps with addictions, intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Additional concerns she addresses include attachment and abandonment worries, blended family tensions, caregiver stress, codependency and communication problems.

Her earlier roles in the City and in academia shaped how she supports people under pressure. Those jobs involved helping professionals, students and staff manage high demands, and she draws on that experience when someone brings work-related strain or major life transitions such as retirement or menopause.

Chanel has worked with Mind as a bereavement counsellor and with clients experiencing anxiety and depression. Her background includes work with Mind’s Dove Private Service and private practice, which informs how she talks about practical next steps and coping strategies.

In sessions she uses Client-Centred Therapy, listening first and following the client's priorities. She aims to help people talk through difficult feelings, consider choices, and find ways to manage daily life a little more easily. If someone is unsure whether counselling will help, she encourages a short step to see how the work might feel.

How Client-Centred work translates to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's priorities and pace. In plain terms this means the counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said, and follows the topics the client brings. This approach suits issues like anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and bereavement where people need time to name and make sense of their feelings.

Chanel’s background supporting professionals and students means she often combines listening with practical conversation about coping and next steps. That can include talking through options for work-related stress, managing transitions such as retirement, or processing loss. The therapist will work together with the client to decide whether Client-Centred methods are the best fit and to adapt the way sessions run based on personal needs and goals.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins can sit between commitments, and audio-only meetings may suit times with lower bandwidth or when a shorter conversation is needed. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use flexible arrangements so practical fit can be discussed when arranging the first appointment.
