About Charles
Clients can expect direct, person-centered work that emphasizes honesty and empathy. He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to build a collaborative space where people can talk through painful experiences and start to make sense of them. He also uses practical strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought patterns that keep problems going.
Before starting focused work, he reviews possible underlying conditions that could affect treatment. That includes discussing mood or psychotic disorders when they may be relevant, and sharing clear information in a respectful way. He notes cultural differences in how mental health is understood and aims to honor those perspectives while offering guidance.
His background includes a doctor of behavioral health and a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling, and five years of clinical experience. He has served in the military and advocates for veterans and their family members based on those years of service.
Therapy sessions move at a steady pace and are tailored to each person’s goals. If someone is seeking support for trauma, grief, relationship strain, or identity and life-purpose questions, he offers practical steps and steady support to help people move forward.
How these approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy, being genuine, and offering nonjudgmental support so people can understand their feelings and decisions better. This approach helps when someone has experienced trauma, abuse, or relationship hurt and needs a steady, accepting space to talk.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks larger problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches practical skills to shift unhealthy patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, grief, and coping with life changes through concrete exercises and goal-setting.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is shared and can change as therapy progresses.
Because specific session formats are not listed in this profile, confirm available online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow choosing a quieter setting or using phone-only meetings when video is not practical. Discuss practical needs and scheduling when you set up your first appointment so sessions match your routine.
