About Chanel
Chanel Muharrem is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She uses a Client-Centred approach that keeps the person at the heart of each session. Chanel helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low, or stuck after loss or life change.
She supports people through problems such as anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem and relationship concerns. She also works with bereavement, career-related stress, transitions like retirement or menopause, and compassion fatigue. Codependency, attachment and family of origin issues are among the themes she helps individuals think through.
Chanel draws on earlier roles supporting professionals in the City and staff and students in academia. That background informs how she talks about work-related pressure, deadlines and the emotional demands of high-responsibility roles. She uses that experience to help people name what is overwhelming and find practical ways to manage it.
Her counselling work has included roles with Mind, including bereavement support and helping people with anxiety and depression. She currently works in private practice as well as offering services through other organisations. Chanel aims to follow the client’s lead, letting people set the pace and topics each week.
In sessions she listens without judgement and helps people sort through thoughts and feelings. If someone is unsure whether counselling will help, she encourages a short initial step to see how talking about these concerns feels. The focus is on what the person wants to work on and finding approaches that fit their life.
How sessions work
Client-Centred work online and what it looks like
Chanel practises Client-Centred Therapy, which means she follows the client’s lead and focuses on what matters most to them. That approach helps when someone is unsure what to talk about or when they need time to reflect on feelings such as anxiety, grief or the strain of people-pleasing. It is built around listening and responding to the person in front of her rather than imposing a fixed plan.The emphasis is on collaboration. Chanel will work with each person to identify goals, test ways of approaching problems and decide how to proceed. Clients and the counsellor together review what is helpful and what could change, so the approach adapts as needs and preferences become clearer.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. A phone call may suit someone who prefers not to be on camera, while other formats can support longer, more reflective sessions. Registered or accredited professionals will aim to match the format to what the client needs and to practicalities like work schedules and quieter surroundings.
