Charlotte Kennedy

I am an African American female with a passion for helping others. I acquired my Michigan Master Social Work license in 2005 . I have provided therapeutic counseling to children, adults, and families for years within my community and work environment. Some areas of focus are anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting skills, anger management, abuse, neglect, domestic violence, self-care, conflict resolution, substance abuse, relationship issues, etc.

My experience spans over 40 years working with children, adults, and families. My work and counseling experience encompasses individuals connected to my church, the human services arena, hospital settings, non-profit community service agencies, etc. I also have a wealth of knowledge and experience in macro level human service management, policy development, and establishing professional relationships and collaborations.

My treatment approach and focus provides the support and guidance individuals need to manage challenging life circumstances. I utilize various therapeutic approaches such as CBT, ACT, Attachment Therapy, Solution Focused, etc. Therapy is a process and patience is key. Clients are encouraged to make a commitment to themselves, the process, and the journey while giving themselves grace. I will listen to concerns, gather history, and explore their overall needs. Together, strategic interventions and goals are established that are meaningful, attainable, and promotes their overall well-being.

Clients are treated with respect, empathy, and compassion. Life challenges require coping skills, tools, and consistency. Taking the first step to seek help takes courage. I am here to support you so, let’s get started!
