About me

I am a LMHC and LCAC with over 25 years experience in mental health and addiction issues. I am familiar with the 12 step model for recovery and generally use a CBT based approach to other clinical issues. In my work experience I have also been active in emergency medicine and an EMT-A and wilderness/swift water rescue along with HAM radio, including weather spotting and ARES work. In the 20+ years of work as a counselor, I have dealt with a variety of issues and treated indviduals with a long list of mental health issues. I tend to utilize a CBT model of therapy, but am not adverse to other modalities of treatment including 12 step, Motivational interviewing and CISM interventions.

He's amazing

Written on Jan 27, 2023 after therapy with Charles for 11 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, sleeping disorders, self esteem, and adhd

He is an excellent fit for me and had a very relaxed approach to therapy that really made me feal at ease, helping me to be vulnerable and share without fear of judgment. Charles is excellent at helping meet my mental health needs where I am at, adjusting his approach to my struggles at the time. He is always friendly and good humored. I would greatly recommend Charles to anyone, as I always leave my sessions better than I came in and the skills/techniques he teaches are able to directly benefit my life when I apply them.
