Charlie is currently accepting new clients for affordable in-person and telehealth sessions and will be starting a men's group come Thursday evenings in January 2025. Email [email protected] or the group practice contact form for more information and group registration. Charlie is a second year student pursuing his Master’s degree in counseling psychology and working toward professional licensure. With over a year of intensive study and practical experience, Charlie is currently interning under the supervision of Hannah Verdolino, aiding his track for licensure. Charlie has developed a strong foundation in understanding and supporting the growth of children and adolescents through his undergraduate psychology major and education minor. His diverse experiences include roles as a camp counselor, teacher, and climbing instructor, each contributing to his passion for helping young people thrive.
Charlie is actively developing his counseling approach and has found particular interest in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). CBT empowers clients to identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors, enhancing coping skills and emotional resilience. REBT focuses on disputing irrational beliefs to promote rational thinking and emotional well-being. Charlie is also particularly drawn to working with young clients through experiential and play therapies, both approaches that utilize play and adventure to help children express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a natural and comfortable way. Charlie is especially passionate about focusing on supporting children and adults experiencing ADHD, aiming to combine nature and adventure into therapeutic practices to bring about engaging and effective treatment. Charlie is gearing up to lead a donation based 8-Week Men's Work Life Balance group on Thursdays starting week of January 23rd 2025. Feel free to inquire or register via practice contacts!
