About Charlotte
Charlotte Gibbons is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with two decades of experience helping people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. She approaches sessions with warmth and directness. Conversations are respectful and focused on practical steps a person can take right away.
She offers straightforward talk therapy that mixes hands-on skills with space to reflect. Sessions often include simple behavior strategies, guided self-reflection, and attention to how patterns from family of origin affect today's choices.
Background and approach
She works to reduce blame and make small, manageable changes that add up over time. Charlotte adapts her approach to each person's needs. That might mean using cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts, dialectical skills to manage strong emotions, or mindfulness to steady attention.
She also brings in ideas from Jungian thought when people want to understand deeper life themes. Her style is collaborative and nonjudgmental. She treats people with sensitivity and doesn’t rely on stigmatizing labels.
The goal is to build tools for coping with stress, grief, addiction concerns, intimacy-related issues, and the daily challenges of parenting and caregiving. With a focus on clear, doable goals, Charlotte helps people manage crisis points and plan for lasting change. She encourages self-compassion and practical problem solving.
If someone is ready to take a first step, she provides steady support through the process.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options
Charlotte often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills for intense feelings and relationship strain.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to identify goals and preferences, then tailors strategies and exercises to fit their life and priorities. That teamwork helps people try methods and adjust what isn’t working without pressure.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing check-ins between sessions. These options make therapy flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving, or daily routines.
