Charlotte Windom

Charlotte Windom is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who offers steady, compassionate care for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, depression, and life changes. She writes and talks plainly, and aims to make therapy feel manageable for busy lives. Charlotte presents herself with warmth and straightforward support so people can address hard feelings and day-to-day struggles.

Charlotte draws on 16 years of counseling experience in a variety of settings. She has worked in private practice, community mental health, university counseling services, juvenile probation liaison roles, and child advocacy work. Her background includes leading a child and adolescent day treatment program and supporting people across age ranges, from children to adults.

In sessions she uses practical, evidence-informed approaches. These include acceptance and commitment methods, cognitive behavior tools, emotion-focused techniques, client-centered listening, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. She aims to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try workable steps, and build clearer communication in relationships.

Charlotte also focuses on specific concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, body image, and family of origin problems. She helps individuals work through divorce and separation, fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, and problems with control and forgiveness.

Her training began with a BS in Human Services with a minor in Psychology and a MS in Counseling Psychology from Troy University. She combines years of front-line experience with a practical style intended to make therapy understandable and useful.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small steps in that direction while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help when stress, anxiety, or life transitions feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday problem solving. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and attachment-style patterns in close relationships, helping people name feelings and improve communication.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each person to see which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying a few tools and adjusting as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use skills learned in session in real-life settings between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, or EFT tools to remote sessions to focus on concrete steps, emotion work, and skill practice without promising a specific outcome.
