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. Healing is truly the risk of showing up for yourself and your resistance to the temptation to go back to unsilenced needs, numbing out, disconnection, and erasure. As a Black, non-binary, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of wide-ranging clinical and field experience, I look forward to tailoring my approach to meet your needs and help you reach your goals.

Life has been pretty wild lately. If you find yourself feeling totally lost or completely overwhelmed, you are not alone. Having an objective ear to talk to can be incredibly helpful and calming. Whether you are looking for a safe space to vent, or for someone to help you gain a new perspective, I'm ready to help you find your way. When you're ready to take that next step, call or e-mail me and we can get that conversation started.

I am a compassionate Licensed Professional Counselor that takes a solution-focused, person-centered approach to helping clients reach their goals and overcome life obstacles. I have experience with treating a multitude of issues but I specialize in addiction, relationships, mood disorders and anxiety. Mental health is not a one size fits all concept so my approach will always be individualized and ever-changing since what worked before doesn't always work now. My goal is to create a non-judgmental environment and a trusting relationship with each client to help empower them to work towards growth in all aspects of life.

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.

I will be taking Highmark and BCBS in late-February of 2025.
My ideal client is someone ready to embrace their story and transform it into their strength. They might be grappling with anxiety, low self-esteem, or the aftermath of trauma, feeling stuck and craving a deeper connection to themselves. Their greatest need is a safe space to explore these feelings, along with guidance to find balance in their lives. Ultimately, they want to feel empowered and free, discovering joy in mindful movement and intuitive eating. They’re seeking not just healing, but a way to thrive—because they deserve to live fully and authentically.

It is essential for the client to feel safe upon entering counseling and throughout their course of treatment. I have come to believe that treatment is about increasing one’s connection with the present, while seeking solutions, rather than being stuck in one’s past. My goal with any client is to work with them, so that they can feel part of the treatment process.

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.”

We’re the right fit for people who feel like they’re carrying more than they can hold—but keep showing up anyway. Our clients are caring, capable, and exhausted by anxiety, grief, disconnection, or the pressure to have it all together. Some are navigating identity, family stress, or major transitions. Others just want to feel like themselves again. Whether they’re 5 or 65, single or partnered, they want real support from people who show up. They’re not looking for surface talk—they want honesty, depth, and a therapist who genuinely cares.
