About Charlene
Charlene Scott is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in Kentucky with 17 years of experience. She focuses on everyday pressures that affect life at home, including stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, motivation, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
She helps people talk through strong feelings and practical problems. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Charlene uses straightforward techniques to help people notice patterns, test small changes, and build coping skills.
Charlene also works with issues such as compassion fatigue, addictions, relationship strain, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, anger, career challenges, depression, coaching, and ADHD. Additional attention is given to caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, and women's issues.
Her approach mixes Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing. That means she listens to what matters most to the person, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and supports motivation to try new steps.
People who reach out are often looking for practical ways to manage stress at home, improve confidence, or find better ways to handle parenting and family responsibilities. The first sessions focus on clear priorities and small, realistic steps clients can use between meetings.
How sessions work
How Charlene uses evidence-based approaches online
Charlene draws on Client-Centered Therapy to start. That means she listens closely to what matters to each person and follows their priorities. This approach helps when someone needs time to clarify feelings about parenting, family stress, or major life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, sleep problems, mood, and building routines at home. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want to increase motivation for change, such as addressing addictions, caregiving strain, or beginning new coping strategies.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences. Sessions are paced so people can try things between meetings and bring back what worked or didn't.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people appreciate online sessions because they can fit meetings into a busy day, shorten a check-in when time is tight, or avoid travel when juggling caregiving and other obligations.
