Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and honest conversation rather than jargon. Clients can expect an approach that listens first and adapts to their needs. Charniece uses a mix of methods to match what each person needs.
She works with client-centered ideas to follow the client's priorities, cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thoughts, and emotionally-focused ideas to improve close relationships. She also incorporates EMDR and mindfulness when those tools fit a person’s goals. Her background includes work as a family therapist and as a behavioral health provider in a high school setting.
That experience shaped her skill in handling family issues, communication problems, grief, and adolescent-related stressors. Charniece focuses on practical coping skills alongside emotion-focused work. Sessions emphasize collaboration and clear goals.
She helps people identify small, manageable steps and supports them as they try new ways of coping. If someone is ready to take a step toward change, she offers steady guidance and practical tools.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. Online, this means the therapist spends time understanding what matters most and shapes sessions around personal goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it works well online for anxiety, depression, and stress when homework and brief exercises are needed. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and shift patterns in close relationships and in the way they process emotions; this approach can be used in sessions to practice new ways of connecting and responding.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first and will adjust based on progress and preferences. That means sessions often mix talking, brief exercises, and practical tasks chosen together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls work when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, chat serves quick check-ins or shorter conversations, and messaging is useful for brief updates or between-session support. These options make scheduling easier and let people fit therapy into busy lives while using methods that suit their needs.
