More about Charlotte

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMSW

I am an African American female with a passion for helping others. I acquired my Michigan Master Social Work license in 2005 . I have provided therapeutic counseling to children, adults, and families for years within my community and work environment. Some areas of focus are anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting skills, anger management, abuse, neglect, domestic violence, self-care, conflict resolution, substance abuse, relationship issues, etc.



My experience spans over 40 years working with children, adults, and families. My work and counseling experience encompasses those connected to the human services arena, hospital settings, and non-profit community service agencies. I also have a wealth of knowledge surrounding macro level human service management, policy development, and establishing professional relationships and collaborations.

My treatment approach and focus provides the support and guidance individuals need to help manage those challenging life circumstances. I utilize various therapeutic approaches such as CBT, ACT, Attachment Therapy, Solution Focused, etc. Therapy is a process that takes time. I encourage my clients to make a commitment to themselves, the process, and the journey. Also, be patient and give themselves grace. I can provide support by offering tools and resources for their life journey. I listen to their concerns, gather background information, and explore their overall needs. Together, we strategically establish interventions and goals that are meaningful, attainable, and promotes their overall well-being.

All clients are treated with respect, compassion, and patience. Life happens and sometimes coping with circumstances can be challenging. I will meet you where you are, and assist you with progressing in the right direction for a wholesome life. Taking the first step to seek help takes courage. I am here to support you so, let's get started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
