About Charles

Charles Roberts is a licensed clinical social worker with a decade of professional experience who works from a strengths-based perspective to help people navigate addiction, relationship struggles, grief, and intimacy-related concerns.

Background and approach

He combines empathy with practical, evidence-informed methods to help clients identify resources within themselves and pursue meaningful change. Roberts draws on his own long-term recovery from substance abuse to inform a compassionate, nonjudgmental stance when addressing substance and behavioral addictions.

His practice emphasizes meeting clients where they are and tailoring interventions to each person’s circumstances, whether they are coping with major life transitions, parenthood challenges, family-of-origin issues, or mood and anxiety concerns. He uses structured tools alongside a client-centered attitude so people gain both emotional understanding and concrete skills to manage stress, improve communication, and rebuild self-esteem.

Roberts integrates several therapeutic modalities, including cognitive behavioral approaches and trauma-informed techniques, to address conditions such as depression, PTSD, bipolar symptoms, and compulsive behaviors. He invites those ready to take steps toward recovery and growth to begin a collaborative process focused on practical strategies and long-term well-being.

Evidence-Informed Therapies Adapted for Online Care

Charles Roberts commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors. Attachment-based strategies are also part of his work, focusing on how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helping clients build more supported ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is collaborative; the therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment often blends structured skill-building with a client-centered stance so sessions feel both practical and supportive as the relationship and plan evolve.

Online therapy with him is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, reduce travel time, and allow clients to access support from their own communities while working on recovery, trauma processing, or relationship challenges.
