About Charlotte

Charlotte Beachem is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with 23 years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She specializes in a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, LGBT matters, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and career challenges, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Her work also addresses complex themes such as abandonment, attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and blended family dynamics. Her therapeutic stance emphasizes restoring hope, building on individual strengths, and offering practical guidance to resolve both past wounds and present struggles.

Charlotte uses an integrative, client-centered approach informed by evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Attachment-Based Therapy. She aims to help clients increase confidence, make values-based choices, and find greater satisfaction in life.

Sessions focus on collaborative problem solving, skill building, and processing difficult emotions so clients can move forward with more resilience. Charlotte welcomes international clients and communicates in English while adapting interventions to each person’s goals and life context.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Charlotte combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in ways that emphasize practical skills and values-driven action. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and learning concrete strategies to change behaviors and manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to steps that align with personal values, which can help with motivation, goal setting, and coping with chronic concerns.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore which methods fit their needs and goals, adjusting techniques over time so treatment remains relevant and responsive to progress and preferences.

Online therapy with Charlotte is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy or geographically distant lives, allow for varied styles of interaction, and support continuity of care when schedules change.
