I work with a diverse range of individuals, with a focus on those struggling with anxiety and depression. I also specialize in men's mental health, addressing a variety of issues particularly relevant to men's experiences and challenges. My approach includes encouraging men to express a full range of emotions and challenging traditional societal expectations that may discourage vulnerability. This work explores societal expectations and stereotypes to foster a healthier, more open emotional experience. Additionally, I also work with children and adolescents, including those with Autism.

Do you feel dysregulated in your relationship? Maybe you find yourself incessantly pursuing your partner, only to find that they become more distant.

My clinical expertise is addiction/substance abuse treatment (both user and impacted family members) as I've worked in both inpatient & outpatient settings. I am very familiar with 12-step recovery but it is not my only tool. I can provide evaluation/assessment and potential referral to rehab if needed. My style is hands on & solution-oriented -- my goal is that you leave our sessions feeling empowered, motivated and have more coping skills to manage your life. There is no reason why you should continue to suffer or struggle; you deserve to feel better & develop confidence in yourself.

Deeply passionate about social justice and facilitating and guiding positive change and development in the lives of others, my name is Charles Tyson (they/them), and I am thrilled to connect with you as you begin your journey inward.

The role of counselors is to ensure clients feel heard, respected, and validated and, in turn offer supportive and constructive feedback to help individuals gain greater insight and understanding. Therefore, I use a mix of compassionate techniques and problem solving strategies to aid individuals in problem resolution and management of their difficulties. This enables and empowers the individual to take charge of things and have control and direction in their lifestyle.

Simply put, money conversations are hard. Our relationship with money is complex, just like our relationships with loved ones, coworkers, ourselves, and our bodies. On top of that, money is often paired with feelings of anxiety, fear, shame, guilt, and embarrassment. “I’m bad with money. I'm overwhelmed. I keep making the same mistakes. I spend too much - and on the wrong things. I have more debt than I care to admit. Being good with money is for other people, not me.”
