More about Charles

  • 40 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

As a licensed therapist in Michigan with four decades of professional experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice focuses on helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and significant life transitions. I offer a compassionate, faith-informed approach that addresses communication challenges, social anxiety, workplace stress, and personal growth.

My therapeutic work centers on understanding individual experiences, particularly for those facing midlife transitions, young adult challenges, and veterans' unique needs. I bring a depth of understanding to issues like grief, purpose exploration, panic disorders, and interpersonal dynamics. My approach is grounded in respect, empathy, and a commitment to helping clients develop meaningful coping strategies and personal insights.

I welcome individuals seeking a supportive, conservative counseling environment that honors personal values and promotes holistic emotional wellness. My goal is to create a safe, understanding space where clients from middle childhood to teens and adults can explore their challenges and discover pathways to healing and personal transformation.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
