About Charlotte
Dr. Charlotte Blanding is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 15 years of therapy experience.

Her approach is practical and people-focused. She uses client-centered conversations to hear what matters most to each person.

She has supported veterans, health care workers, adolescents, women with specialized issues, and older adults in past roles. Dr. Blanding has helped clients navigate grief from losses including romance scams and other forms of betrayal, and she guides people through mourning and rebuilding trust in themselves.

Sessions emphasize small, achievable steps. Conversations focus on identifying what matters, setting realistic goals, and practicing concrete skills between meetings. She invites people to bring what feels most urgent and figures out a plan together.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How these approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the client's lead, clarifies what matters, and helps prioritize goals in a straightforward way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together; online sessions use simple exercises to notice unhelpful patterns and try small behavioral experiments between meetings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what has worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, because specific formats are not listed in the biography. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a break from work for a meeting. Online sessions also let clients practice skills in real-life settings and report back on what happened between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to match your practical needs and schedule.
