Charlie is currently accepting new clients for in-person and telehealth sessions. He has affordable, sliding scale rates, similar to a co-payment. Charlie is a student in the Counseling Psychology program at Colorado Christian University, where he is pursuing his Master’s degree 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 earned his undergraduate degree from Colorado College, where he developed a strong foundation in understanding and supporting the growth of children and adolescents through his 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.
