About Charniece

Charniece C. Scott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with ten years of experience. She has worked as a family therapist and as a behavioral health provider in a high school setting, helping people with depression, stress and anxiety, family conflict, grief and anger management.

She uses a conversational, interactive style in sessions. Conversations are direct and focused on practical steps. Sessions aim to identify patterns that come from the family a person grew up in and how those patterns affect current relationships and choices.

Her approach draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Emotionally-focused ideas are used to look at how feelings shape interactions. She also uses mindfulness practices and EMDR when appropriate to address stuck memories and strong emotional reactions.

Charniece has experience supporting parents, people coping with life changes, and those managing mood concerns including bipolar disorder and ADHD-related struggles. She also works with issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, codependency, and forgiveness.

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. She helps people name the patterns they inherited from family of origin and test new ways of relating. To begin, clients follow the site's matching and scheduling steps to arrange an initial meeting.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people feel understood and supports them in choosing changes that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches straightforward skills to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on how strong emotions shape interactions and attachment patterns. It can be useful for people who want to understand how early family roles affect current relationships and closeness. These approaches are aimed at making small, repeatable changes in day-to-day behavior and emotional responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, past experiences, and preferences and will recommend which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process that can change over time as goals evolve.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as none are listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commuting time. They can also let people join from quieter surroundings or attend while on a break at work, depending on what suits their routine.
