You've Been Strong for Everyone Else-Now It's Your Turn

For the past 18 years, I’ve helped individuals build resilience, regain confidence, and create meaningful change. If you’re the person everyone relies on but rarely asks for help, the high-achiever who looks successful on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside, or someone who has lost their motivation, confidence, or sense of direction, you’re not alone.

Maybe your mind never seems to shut off. Perhaps you’re constantly overthinking, struggling to set boundaries, feeling emotionally exhausted, navigating a difficult relationship, carrying the weight of past experiences, or facing a life transition that has left you feeling stuck. You may know what needs to change but feel unsure how to move forward.

At Dwell Ase' Counseling and Consultation, LLC, my goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to be. Whether you're seeking relief from anxiety, navigating a major life change, rebuilding your confidence, or simply wanting more from life than just getting through the day, meaningful change is possible and the support you need is just an email away.

I’m Charlotte Aeger Ross, PMHNP, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner providing integrative mental health care for children, adolescents, and adults. My clinical approach combines evidence-based medication management with holistic strategies to address underlying biological, psychological, and lifestyle factors contributing to conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma-related disorders. I focus on individualized, collaborative treatment plans designed to promote long-term stability and overall well-being.

As a health care provider, patient advocacy has been the cornerstone of my practice. I am a highly self-sufficient professional, confident in my ability to independently manage and resolve a wide range of common challenges and unpredictable situations in healthcare. As a doctorial prepared nurse practitioner, I've had the opportunity to build tools to support providers with improving the accuracy of their diagnoses. My autonomous background has provided me with a proven record in treating Mood Disorders, Eating Disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Women's Health related psychiatric disorders, Body Dysmorphia, as well as Sleep Disorders. Working within a diverse population including rural health has prepared me to serve and cater to the complexity and challenges faced by my clients, across all ages. In my spare time outside of the office, I enjoy reading, exercise, traveling, and playing with my puppy.

I came to train and serve as a counselor after being helped by counseling in my 40s. Sometimes reaching out for help and making changes in life is scary and overwhelming. Sometimes we need support as we navigate these changes. I love to support my clients as they make life-giving changes.

Hi, my name is Karen Begley, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Mississippi. I am skilled with working with both adolescents and adults using a client-centered approach.

Hi, I’m really glad you’re here. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in stress, or unsure about your next steps, you’re not alone. Many people reach a point where they want things to feel different but aren’t quite sure how to get there. You might feel mentally exhausted, disconnected, or like you’re carrying more than you can manage on your own. I’m a licensed therapist in Mississippi and Wisconsin with over 11 years of experience supporting adults through life’s challenges. I work with individuals who are ready to feel more grounded, clear, and in control, even if they’re not sure where to begin.

I am a licensed therapist with a Doctorate in Professional Counseling from Mississippi College and nearly 15 years of experience supporting individuals, families, children, and adolescents in both individual and group therapy settings. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of sitting with people through some of their most difficult and transformative moments, and I bring empathy, patience, and genuine care to every session I show up for.

My clinical experience spans a broad range of presenting concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and behavioral health issues. I have worked with clients across a wide variety of ages, backgrounds, and life circumstances, and that breadth of experience has shaped me into a flexible, responsive clinician who understands that no two people are alike. I do not arrive with a one-size-fits-all plan. I arrive ready to listen, to understand, and to meet each person exactly where they are.

While I welcome clients navigating all kinds of challenges, two populations are especially close to my heart. The first is children and adolescents who are struggling with behavioral problems. I understand how exhausting and frightening it can feel for a young person and their family when things seem out of control, and I find deep meaning in helping young people and the adults who love them find steadier ground. The second is women who have experienced any type of trauma and are working through its lasting effects. Trauma reshapes the way a person sees themselves and the world around them, and I am deeply committed to helping women reclaim their strength, their voice, and their hope for the future.

I believe healing is possible for everyone, and I consider it an honor to be trusted as part of that journey.
