About Charlotte

Charlotte Windom is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 16 years of experience. She takes a kind, supportive approach and aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, depression, or big life changes. Charlotte writes and listens with care and expects practical steps to follow the conversations.

She frames difficult moments as part of being human rather than a sign of personal failure. That perspective shapes how she talks with people about abandonment, family of origin issues, blended family concerns, adoption and foster care, and parenting stress. She also addresses body image, guilt and shame, chronic illness or pain, and the challenges of divorce and separation.

Charlotte blends approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. In practice this means she helps people notice what matters, change unhelpful thinking patterns, learn emotion regulation skills, strengthen important relationships, and use their own goals to guide progress.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Human Services with a minor in Psychology and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Troy University. She has worked across community mental health, university counseling, juvenile probation liaison roles, child advocacy, and private practice. That mix of settings informs a practical, no-nonsense style in sessions.

Charlotte highlights collaboration in her work. She aims to help people set clear goals, try small changes between meetings, and track what helps most. Her experience includes program development and long-term service to youth and families in Alabama.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when feelings are difficult. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful action rather than only symptom reduction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding emotional responses in close relationships and improving how partners or family members connect and respond to each other.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charlotte will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining elements from ACT, CBT, or EFT so sessions are tailored to what the client wants to accomplish and how they prefer to work.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific delivery options. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people keep continuity of care when schedules or circumstances change. Speak with the scheduler to learn which formats are offered and how to arrange appointments that fit day-to-day life.
