I have served adolescents and adults in various settings including residential treatment facilities, outpatient Substance Abuse Comprehensive Outpatient Treatment (SACOT), Substance Abuse Intensive Outpatient Program (SAIOP) and aftercare treatment facilities. Areas of treatments consist ofpersonal, behavioral, emotional, relationship, parent/child conflict, addiction, co-occurring disorders, and family difficulties. More specifically, I have experience working with individuals with mood disorders, anxiety, depression, domestic violence issues, substance abuse issues, trauma survivors, personality disorders, developmental disabilities, eating disorders, and family conflict.
My role as a counselor is to provide an environment of safety, trust, and mutual respect from which the clients and I cooperatively explore their world. I will work collaboratively to identify areas of concern and presenting problems and develop a comprehensive plan to improve one’s overall quality of life. My goal is to promote mental health wellness through meeting each client at his or her level and developing a working relationship towards overall mental and emotional well-being.
My core belief is that we as humans can be our own authors and essentially write or re-write our own destinies. This means that despite unfortunate or uncontrollable circumstances, we can change our lives and create the results that have always been desired. Helping clients increase self-awareness, recognize the power of choice and responsibility, change faulty cognitions, and recognize the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is a large part of my therapeutic approach. I welcome a collaborative relationship with my clients to progress toward overall well-being.
We all can use a little assistance from time to time! My name is Charlene Powell, and I am looking forward to assisting you in finding the right tools that is going to help in your quest for a different approach to health, life, and happiness.

What you can expect from our first session
What can you expect to take away from sessions with me, that's simple! The fact that I heard you because I listened! Sometimes, all it takes is for someone to be able to talk about their concerns without judgement and textbook responses. Together we will work towards addressing changes at a pace you feel comfortable in pursuing. Together we will find the tools that works for you.
