About Charlene
Charlene Jones is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 11 years of clinical experience. She has worked in both online and in-person settings and helps people who are facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and other life challenges. Charlene meets people where they are and aims to build practical skills for day-to-day life.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She uses client-centered work to understand each person's priorities and goals. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help shift unhelpful thoughts and dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and interpersonal skills.
Background and approach
Charlene often helps people cope with stress, grief, relationship problems, parenting strain, and substance use concerns. She also supports those dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, body image concerns, and the fallout from separation or domestic violence. Phobias are included among the specific concerns she lists.
In sessions she focuses on clear skills like setting boundaries, improving communication, and building routines that support mental health. She encourages small, achievable changes so progress feels manageable. The emphasis is on practical steps rather than long lectures.
Charlene works with adults and uses a mix of short-term and longer-term strategies depending on need. She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Location is North Carolina and sessions are offered in English.
How these approaches can work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's priorities. It helps clarify what matters most and guides sessions around the client's goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and phobias.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charlene will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean starting with CBT techniques, adding DBT skills for emotion regulation, or using client-centered conversations to shape treatment. The plan changes as progress and needs evolve.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and do interactive exercises. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, skill coaching between sessions, and shorter updates. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing family, work, and other demands.
