About Charles Zaglin

I am a Trauma/PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) psychotherapist licensed in Georgia with approximately 20+ years of experience both as a Traumatologist in working with clients and as a researcher. As a survivor of Trauma/PTSD for over 40+ years I have been fortunate in watching and participating in the treatment of survivors from before PTSD & CPTSD TRAUMA was officially recognized as a separate and distinctive disorder by the Psychological Community in 1980.

My therapeutic style is first and foremost empathic, open, honest and interactive. Much too often individuals suffering from the exposure to Trauma live in a world of silence never feeling that they can truly tell their story without being judged negatively.
This approach combines being present for my clients along with an existentialist philosophy of self-empowerment. This approach combines the search for Meaning in one’s own life by the of an Eclectic approach. As with all mental health issues is the realization that just like with Trauma/PTSD, CPTSD it is but a mere part of our existence but we cannot let it define who we are as individuals.

There are numerous layers of psychological discord from exposure to Trauma than can’t be seen on the surface ranging from depression and anxiety to sleep disorders and that which lies in between. Together we will tailor a protocol specific to each person’s needs not wants!
One of the most difficult steps in the healing process is acknowledging the negative influence these Traumatic event[s] have had and continue to have in influence your life in a negative direction. The exciting and powerful step in regaining control over your own existence you have already taken by reaching out for help. If you are looking for a therapist who will be painfully honest than contact me. If you are an individual or couple who wants a therapist who cares totally about you growth and you living your best life contact me. If you are simply wanting a therapist to give you what you WANT instead of what you NEED contact someone else! Life is hard, choices are often hard, but if you stick with our journey together then you might just find the joy and peacefulness you desire but has eluded you!

I look forward to working with you on your journey.
