About Charlise
Charlise Bell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. She brings six years of professional experience helping people who are coping with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, and motivation struggles.

She works with people facing family tensions and parenting strain, including blended family issues and communication problems. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, mood challenges, and questions about life purpose and self-love.
Background and approach
Bipolar disorder and Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD) are among her areas of focus as listed in her profile. Charlise uses practical conversation to tailor a plan to each person. She draws on client-centered approaches to follow what matters most to the person in the room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot patterns and try different ways of thinking and behaving. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she helps people find reasons to change and keep momentum. Sessions aim to build realistic, doable steps rather than overwhelming plans.
The work is collaborative and paced to the client's readiness. Her manner is respectful and direct. She tries to create space for honest talk while keeping goals clear.
If someone wants steady, straightforward support for anxiety or everyday life struggles, she offers an approach that focuses on practical progress and personal values.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following what matters to the person. Online sessions let the therapist tune into your concerns and priorities and shape sessions around your goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Delivered online, CBT can include practical homework, thought records, and focused skill practice between sessions to reduce anxiety and stress.
Motivational Interviewing uses open questions and feedback to help people find their own reasons to change. In virtual sessions this approach supports planning small steps and keeping momentum from week to week.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then recommend a path to try. Plans can be changed as progress is made or new needs appear.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapy work and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and messaging help when someone prefers shorter, written check-ins or needs flexibility during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, and family routines.
