Background and approach

Her approach is culturally aware and respectful of each person's background and beliefs. She brings a faith-informed perspective when requested, and adapts methods to match what matters most to the individual. The work is collaborative and paced to the client's needs.

In sessions she helps people name painful feelings like guilt, shame, or emptiness and then work toward practical changes. She also guides those wrestling with midlife questions, purpose, jealousy, or the fallout from prejudice and discrimination. Therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.

Charisse uses these formats to fit counseling into busy lives and to maintain steady support between sessions.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Charisse uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One approach centers on building self-esteem and coping skills through structured exercises and real-life practice. This helps with low mood, social anxiety, and workplace stress by giving clear steps to try between sessions.

Another approach emphasizes communication skills and emotional processing. It helps people express needs, set boundaries, and reduce recurring conflicts or feelings of emptiness. For panic and acute anxiety, she applies focused strategies to reduce symptoms and teach calming tools that can be used in the moment.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals, and personal preferences to decide what to focus on. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and new needs appear, so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for deeper exchanges, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging is useful for short check-ins or when people need flexible support. These options make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules and maintain steady progress.
