About Charline
Charline Gaskin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people cope with anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship struggles. She emphasizes a collaborative, client-centered style that puts a person's everyday goals and experiences first. Her work aims to help clients feel heard and to build practical ways to manage difficult moments.
She uses straightforward conversation to understand what matters to each person. Sessions focus on strengthening coping skills and creating small changes that fit into daily life. Charline pays attention to how past relationships and attachment patterns show up now, including issues like abandonment, codependency, and family of origin concerns.
Her approach draws on therapies that teach skills and awareness. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and to build different responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills help with emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness.
Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are woven into sessions to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Client-centered work guides the pace, so the person sets the priorities and Charline supports them without pushing an agenda.
Charline has practiced for five years in Connecticut as an LPC. She works with a range of concerns including parenting stress, career strain, addictions, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. People who want practical tools and respectful listening will find a clear, down-to-earth approach.
Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. It can help when someone wants to make changes but feels held back by fear or self-doubt.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing different responses. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it gives clear steps to change thinking and behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made, and sessions are paced to what feels manageable.
Confirm the current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. Some formats are better for step-by-step skill practice, while others suit longer conversations, so the therapist and client will pick what supports the goals.
