About Charlotte
Charlotte Kennedy is a licensed social worker who uses practical, forward-focused methods to help people manage strong emotions. She guides clients through anger, stress, anxiety, and life changes with calm, direct support. Charlotte listens closely and helps people name what they are feeling and try ways to respond differently.
She blends tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to build clearer thinking and steady action. That means learning new ways to react in the moment and choosing values-based steps that matter.
Background and approach
She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current reactions. Charlotte has seven years of experience working with people facing depression, trauma, addictions, grief, and low self-esteem. She helps with parenting strain, caregiver stress, career shifts, and communication problems.
Her approach is practical: set small goals, practice new skills, and track what changes over time. Sessions typically focus on learning strategies that reduce intensity and improve decision-making. Clients work on breathing and coping skills, thought tracking, boundary setting, and clearer communication.
Conversations are steady and outcome-oriented without losing empathy. Charlotte practices in Michigan and holds the LMSW credential, which stands for Licensed Master Social Worker. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then pick actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, anger, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and homework. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and anger management.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they adjust methods and tools as progress and needs evolve, trying different techniques until a good fit is found.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for people with busy or unpredictable schedules. Video calls let conversations feel close to face-to-face while fitting around work or caregiving hours. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in helps during a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send quick updates, practice skills between sessions, and keep momentum on hard days.
