Background and approach

Attachment-informed techniques are used to look at how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in current relationships. Sessions often focus on building routines, improving communication, and learning coping skills for anxiety and cravings. She helps people set realistic goals and break problems into small, manageable steps.

Practical exercises and homework are offered so progress continues outside the session time. Charlotte works with concerns such as trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting strain, caregiver stress, and family-of-origin issues. She also addresses commitment and control issues, feelings of emptiness, and problems tied to blended families or adoption and foster care.

She practices in Michigan and provides services in English. Charlotte holds an LMSW, which is a licensed master social worker credential. Her approach centers on collaboration, clear goals, and steady skill-building to help people regain a sense of control and forward motion.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions by shifting focus from avoidance to meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to challenge unhelpful thinking. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and workplace stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Charlotte will work with each person to see which methods feel most helpful and adjust plans based on goals and preferences. Sessions can blend approaches so practical skills and deeper attachment work both get attention when needed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video lets people practice skills and read visual cues, phone calls are good when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and messaging supports brief check-ins or step-by-step coaching between sessions. These options provide flexibility for different schedules, quieter surroundings, and varying levels of interaction while keeping the focus on steady progress.
