Finding healing in therapy is based on the power of the therapeutic relationship to provide comfort, trust, and guidance. Life transitions; such as those associated with foster care, out of home placements, and adoption, often present difficult challenges and obstacles for individual and families to navigate. Counseling can facilitate the growth families and individuals seek when they become stuck in life’s journey. It takes brave individuals and families to seek help when life’s hardships have made them feel powerless. Charline build on her client’s strengths and provide them encouragement to help rediscover their way to live a more balanced life.
Charline works with an honest, confidential, and respectful demeanor in a private practice setting. Charline works with individuals, couples and families across the lifespan. Charline finds great joy and meaning in helping her clients gain insight and awareness, access their inner strengths and resources, and develop the skills and confidence to create a more fulfilling and balanced life.
