I’m a geeky therapist who loves to help fellow geeks build deeper connections and feel understood. Too many geeks struggle with anxiety in relationships and in social situations. This often leaves them feeling disconnected from friends, family, and life, and feeling like nobody can understand them.
I believe you shouldn’t have to hide your passion for Dungeons and Dragons, tabletop games, Star Trek (even though Star Wars is better, imo), or whatever you geek out about, in order to feel comfortable in social settings and in relationships. I understand what you are going through. I’m a Game/Dungeon Master who has been the one who saw himself as a social outcast or socially on the fringe. It took me a fair bit of time to figure out my path. Now, I have helped over 50 geeks just like you in becoming more connected with others, and more confident in being themselves, no matter the social setting.

Charles has been helping me out tremendously. I’ve been in and out of crisis mode for a long time and he’s really helping me remember how to reconnect with things that help pull me out of that. Thank you Charles

Charles’ help has been immensely valuable to me over the course of my healing journey. He has a broad range of understanding in many areas of psychology that I needed assistance in. Including dealing with past trauma, understanding healthy relationship habits, forming boundaries, even improving relationships with children and extended family.
He is prompt and professional but warm and understanding.
I would recommend him. Value him and deeply appreciate his service.

Charles listens, and yes, maybe sometimes that’s all one needs. However, he has the talent to teach you how to navigate when things are hopeless. Highly recommended.

for as short of a time as i had with charles he was very understanding and still showed interest to help despite how busy i normally am, i may not always be who i want to be but what matters is that he did help me in a way

Charles is very professional and helpful, validating my emotions and giving me several things to work on and practical applications and specific things to focus on for my mental health

Charles is very accommodating when it comes to the ways of communication. He was checking with me every day on how I felt and gave me tips every time I had a question. I have a lot of difficulties presently and he is working through them with me tirelessly trying to help me to get out of my head, helping me with the perspective, and helping me with sticking to the plan. I always feel that he listens and understands and give suggestions that are not conflicting with my believes. I can see a huge improvement after working with him for a week and look forward to continuing working with Charles.

Charles is a great therapist, he listens and really cares about the issues I am having. He follows up regularly and is very responsive. He offers great advice that gets me thinking until the next session.
I am not a therapist and I do not know what would be the better way to handle therapies. However, I do not feel Charles is taking the lead in trying to get to the root of the problem. Instead, he lets me choose the topics I want to talk about and he stays on the responsive side.
This review is after my third session, so maybe I am ahead of myself.

Charles is very supportive, empathetic, and tailors the sessions to what you need. He listens when you need to vent and offers action items when you need to make a change. He also provides great insight and perspective.

Charles is very good at helping me apply techniques that I’ve learned to use in my day to day life. He really understands what I’m going through and makes sure he understands my goals from session to session and that we’re addressing each of them. He’s a really good guy, a great listener, and has helped me a ton.

I feel like Charles really listens to me, and supports me, something this is extremely important. He checks in on me, when I’ve been silent for a day or two, even though I feel like I’ve been needy. He is a great support, and I’m glad I have him in my corner.
