Charlene Hogue, LISW

My clients describe me as:

Warm, validating, trustworthy, nonjudgmental, present, engaged, dedicated, good communicator, collaborative, and focused on the goals of the client.

Something to know about my approach is:

I provide a safe emotional space to help clients identify problem areas, develop treatment goals using several evidence based interventions, such as CBT, interpersonal therapy, grief work, and trauma work to modify learned unhelpful responses.

Together, we will:

Use my skills as a grief/ trauma therapist to service women and men who experience emotional and behavioral issues in response to postpartum depression, miscarriage, infertility, other issues that involve mood disorders, anxiety, relationship issues.

I specialize in working with people who:

Present with feelings of guilt/ shame as if something is wrong with them or they are the problem. They develop “pleasing” behaviors to maintain harmony in relationships. They struggle with self image and turn on themselves through blame and anger.

I became a therapist because:

I am curious about communication patterns that individuals develop. I look for deeper meaning and to connect past experiences with present behaviors.
