Charvette Simmons, LCSW

Charvette Simmons is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and low self-esteem. She draws on 13 years of experience to support people facing life changes, career worries, and parenting strain. Charvette also works with those dealing with compassion fatigue and caregiving stress. She uses clear, practical methods to help clients notice thinking patterns and try new behaviors. Sessions are conversational and focused on real-life steps people can use between visits. Charvette pays attention to how daily routines, work pressure, and parenting responsibilities affect mood and coping. Her background includes many years working with people who care for others, including those supporting a loved one with an illness. That experience shapes how she recognizes burnout and helps people rebuild energy and purpose. She also addresses intimacy-related issues and communication challenges that affect relationships. Charvette relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on linking thoughts, feelings, and actions. She adapts that approach to each person instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan. The goal is practical change that fits into a busy life. People coming for help can expect straightforward feedback, goal-focused sessions, and tools to manage anxiety and depression symptoms. She offers a supportive space for parents, caregivers, and people wanting clearer direction in their relationships and careers.

How CBT and practical therapy work online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to change feelings. It focuses on clear, step-by-step tools like tracking thoughts, setting small goals, and practicing new responses to stress or anxiety. This approach can help with worry, low mood, and problems that show up in relationships or at work. The therapist helps you break big problems into manageable tasks and checks progress each session. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and suggest how CBT techniques might fit your needs. You can decide which tools to try and adjust them based on what is helpful for you. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or fitting a meeting into a work break. Confirm current session options before booking to learn the exact formats offered. The practical aim is the same as in-person care: clear goals, regular check-ins, and tools you can use between appointments to make daily life more manageable.
