About Charsie
Charsie Duvall is a licensed counselor practicing in Mississippi who helps people dealing with stress and anxiety. She draws on seven years of clinical work to guide clients through sudden changes, emotional overwhelm, and persistent worries. Her manner is conversational and down-to-earth, making it easier to talk about hard things.
Charsie focuses on practical skills people can use between sessions. She often teaches grounding and mindfulness exercises, thought-challenging strategies, and ways to set boundaries at home.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative - the client’s goals shape each plan. Before moving into counseling, Charsie spent years working in crisis settings where quick, calm responses mattered. That background influences how she approaches urgent concerns like trauma, postpartum struggles, and reactions after disasters.
It also informs her work with first responders and veterans who face job-related stress. Her clinical methods include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, and client-centered care. She blends these to match each person’s needs rather than using one fixed method.
Motivational interviewing and mindfulness also appear in her work when motivation or focus is part of the challenge. Charsie values respect and empathy and avoids labeling people by diagnoses. She works with adults on issues such as family conflict, parenting stress, depression, addictions, bipolar concerns, ADHD, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, and identity questions for LGBT clients.
If someone is ready to start, she helps them take the first practical step toward change.
Using evidence-based approaches in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult emotions while committing to actions that match personal values; it can help with persistent anxiety and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and obsessive thinking. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and build emotional regulation skills.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, past attempts, and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods over time. Sessions emphasize collaboration so techniques fit the person’s daily life and priorities.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use face-to-face interaction for skill coaching and role-play. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, and shorter touchpoints between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or recovery needs while applying ACT, CBT, and mindfulness strategies.
