About Charline

Charline Gaskin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with five years of clinical experience who guides people through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She uses a collaborative, client-centered stance that emphasizes each person's lived experience and individual goals, helping clients build practical coping strategies while exploring patterns that undermine well-being.

Her practice blends evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-informed techniques to address concerns like self-esteem, addiction, parenting challenges, career stress, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues related to attachment, family dynamics, communication problems, and impulsivity.

Charline aims to create a respectful, culturally responsive space where people feel heard and understood. Throughout the therapeutic process she focuses on strengthening insight and skill building so clients can make meaningful, sustainable changes that fit their daily lives.

Located in Connecticut, she offers a flexible range of session formats to meet different needs and preferences.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care



Charline draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and test new beliefs through practical exercises, a method often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and developing psychological flexibility so people can move toward meaningful actions despite difficult feelings. When emotional regulation and interpersonal patterns are central, elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness-based skills are woven in to strengthen distress tolerance and present-moment awareness.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to match methods to goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve. Clients are invited to offer feedback so therapy remains a shared effort toward practical outcomes.

Online therapy with Charline uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for different schedules and communication preferences. These options allow people to access consistent care from Connecticut while fitting sessions into busy lives, supporting continuity and skill practice between meetings.
