About Charlene
Charlene Jones is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina with 11 years of clinical experience. She has provided therapy in both online and in-person settings and helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and life changes. Charlene approaches each person with empathy and practical support to manage difficult moments and everyday struggles.
She draws on client-centered methods to build a respectful, person-focused relationship. That means she listens first, and works from your goals.
Background and approach
She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small changes that can ease problems in daily life. Dialectical behavior strategies and mindfulness practices are part of her toolbox for handling intense emotions and improving focus. For trauma-related concerns she integrates approaches that address past distress while helping people reconnect with the present.
Sessions focus on concrete skills and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Charlene often helps with family and parenting stress, relationship and communication problems, substance concerns, grief, self-esteem, and coping after loss or upheaval. She pays attention to attachment, abandonment, and blended family issues when they affect current functioning.
Her practice also includes support for mood conditions and attention-related challenges. In sessions, expect clear goals, skill-building, and collaborative planning. Charlene aims to motivate and empower people to make changes that fit their lives.
She encourages gentle, sustained steps forward and offers a steady professional presence through the process.

Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful working relationship. The therapist follows your lead, helps you set goals, and bases sessions on what matters most to you; this can help with motivation and clearer decision making.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often includes homework like tracking patterns or trying small behavior changes, which works well over video or messaging because items can be reviewed together in the next session.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Skills training and short coaching-style check-ins can be practiced between sessions and reinforced through brief messages or chat tools.
Finding the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you’ll try methods that fit your needs and adjust based on what feels most useful.
Online formats offer practical benefits: video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or camera use isn’t preferred, and live chat or text messaging support quick check-ins or daily skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine and to continue work between sessions.
