About Charlotte
Charlotte Kennedy is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and other life changes. Sessions address issues such as substance use, grief, career pressure, and family of origin problems.
In session she focuses on helping people notice patterns that come from their family background and make different choices. She uses practical skills from cognitive behavioral therapy and DBT to manage strong emotions and reduce unhelpful thinking. Attachment-based ideas help when early relationship patterns affect current connections.
Charlotte uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them. Client-centered methods guide the conversation so the person leads what matters most. She combines short-term coping strategies with work on longer standing family patterns.
Her work often involves improving communication, setting boundaries, and managing caregiver stress or blended family challenges. She also supports those dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, or fatherhood issues. Sessions typically explore what habits are still running a person and what changes feel possible now.
Charlotte offers direct, practical collaboration rather than abstract theory. People can expect straightforward interventions, opportunities to practice skills between sessions, and a focus on real-life problems like parenting strain, workplace stress, or relationship communication. She speaks English and practices in Michigan.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based actions. Online work with ACT often centers on identifying values and practicing short behavioral steps between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises. In virtual sessions CBT can include homework, thought records, and behavioral experiments that fit into daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations in current connections and supports relearning healthier interaction patterns. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best for their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions can mix approaches depending on whether the focus is emotion regulation, changing patterns from family of origin, or improving communication. Confirm the session formats before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let homework exercises be done in the context of everyday life. Licensed professionals commonly adapt exercises and pacing to suit a person's routine and practical constraints, and this therapist will discuss how best to structure sessions to match a client's schedule and needs.Areas of expertise
