Infidelity? Porn addiction? Sex addiction? Trauma? These issues can be tough to deal with, but I can help. I have specialized training so that you're not wasting your time and money. Not just talk, talk, talk that gets you nowhere. I used evidence-based treatments so that you're feeling better soon. As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), a Certified Partner Trauma Therapist (CPTT), and a Certified Multiple Addiction Therapist (CMAT), I'm trained in many addictions and compulsive behavior, as well as substance addictions. Most therapists aren't trained in all these issues. I offer EMDR trauma therapy, as well. There is hope.

Leadership is hard. Many leaders, entrepreneurs, and CEOs have had incredibly hard life circumstances, trauma, abuse, or lack of privilege and yet, they have a resilience that pushes them to strive for escaping their circumstances. This resilience and drive is a gift, but it is also a double-edged sword. Many leaders struggle with loneliness, isolation, perfectionism, stress, and people-pleasing. They often have competing demands and roles. They are so much for so many people. As a trauma specialist for a decade, I was surprised at how many of my clients were so driven while coping with really hard things or unhealed past wounds.

Hi I'm Charlene and I’m a therapist dedicated to supporting adult women and men of color. I specialize in navigating the journey of healing from racial trauma, anxiety, grief and loss, depression, and childhood trauma. I understand that the impact of these experiences can be profound and complex, especially within a society that often overlooks the unique struggles faced by people of color. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where we can work together to unpack these layers and foster healing, resilience, and empowerment.

Perhaps you have developed patterns of low self-esteem, hurtful self-dialogue, addiction or other harmful behaviors, and struggle to relate to others in your life. As humans, we naturally develop self- soothing methods to help us survive and meet our needs, however some of these strategies are unhelpful in the long term. You may now be finding yourself at the stage of change to confront these patterns, learn new coping strategies, and return to your true self.
