I’m Charnel, and I’m here to help you gain the tools you need to take back control of your mental well-being. My approach is collaborative and practical; we won't just talk about the 'why,' we’ll focus on the 'how.' Together, we will identify the specific challenges you’re facing—be it anxiety, burnout, infertility, grief or relationship stress—and develop concrete strategies to help you move from surviving to thriving.
I use a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused techniques. This means we won't just spend our time rehashing the past; instead, we’ll also look at the 'here and now.' We will identify the specific thought patterns that are keeping you stuck and trade them for practical, evidence-based tools that work in your real life.
My goal isn't for you to be in therapy forever. It’s to help you identify your existing strengths, build a concrete toolkit for managing your symptoms, and get you back to living a life that feels aligned with your goals. If you're looking for a therapist who is direct, encouraging, and focused on results, I think we’ll be a great fit.
In your first session, we will start by discussing what brought you to therapy right now. While I’ll ask about your history to understand the context, our focus will be on your current life. I’m interested in your struggles, but I’m also looking for your strengths—the things you’re already doing well that we can build upon.
