She knows what she's talking about and she's a good listener. She gives solutions to my concerns.

She is top tier in comparison to any other therapist I have ever seen. She is warm and real which is exactly what I needed in my life.

I was very comfortable with Charlene--she quickly grasped my concerns and had useful suggestions--which I had not thought about before, and that I believe I could implement.
