“Kind, thoughtful, and patient. ”

“I just love her work and how.she has helped me through grief. Simply wonderful ”

“Charlene is amazing at not only listening to my concerns but providing coping skills to deal with my issues outside of therapy. I enjoy that she validates my feelings while still calling me out on my negative behaviors that I am trying to improve on. I have found (& been told) that I have improved overall in managing my emotions over the past year since starting therapy with Charlene. ”

“Charlene continues to be such a huge help in me continuing to learn and understand myself. She recalls things that previously helped me or details that I don’t even remember telling her.
