About Charlotte

Dr. Charlotte Kennedy brings 40 years of clinical experience to work with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, and a wide range of life transitions.

Background and approach

Licensed in Tennessee as TN Psychologist 671, she focuses on helping clients develop practical coping strategies, restore emotional balance, and improve communication and intimacy. Her practice also addresses concerns such as parenting and family problems, sleep and eating issues, self-esteem, career questions, compassion fatigue, and caregiving stress.

Her style centers on empathic engagement and collaboration, blending client-centered listening with evidence-informed tools so individuals can explore their history, identify patterns, and build skills for daily living. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to reframe thinking and mindfulness to strengthen present-moment awareness, while motivational interviewing supports movement toward meaningful change.

With attention to attachment, abandonment, blended family dynamics, and other nuanced focus areas, she aims to tailor care to each person’s circumstances and goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, helping clients feel heard and supported while they explore personal values and goals. This approach is useful for people working through relationship concerns, grief, identity questions, or broad life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses. It often helps with anxiety, depression, stress management, sleep and eating difficulties, and ADHD-related coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy, and she works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Over time the therapist and client review what is helping and adjust the plan so sessions remain relevant and effective for the individual’s circumstances.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy times or life transitions, and they allow clients in Tennessee to access support without the need for in-person visits.
