About Charlotte

Charlotte Cox is a Pennsylvania-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 42 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, self-esteem, career challenges, and coping with life changes. She also addresses first responder issues, guilt and shame, hospice and end-of-life concerns, intellectual disability, life purpose, veteran and armed forces issues, self-love, workplace problems, and insomnia.

Her style is direct and practical. She helps people define the problem, learn new ways of coping, and identify possible solutions. She treats trauma, including combat-related trauma, as part of her past clinical work. Sessions emphasize clear steps rather than abstract labels.

Charlotte uses several familiar therapy approaches, including Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She draws on these methods to address emotions, unhelpful thinking, and behavior that keep problems in place. The goal is to make changes that feel doable in daily life.

She encourages people to notice their strengths and to use them when problems arise. The work is collaborative - she and the client set goals and try practical strategies together. For anyone who has faced the challenge of starting therapy, she acknowledges that first step takes courage.

Charlotte is based in Pennsylvania and provides services in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How her EFT and ACT work for online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on noticing and naming emotions that are hard to identify. It can help when patterns of feeling and interaction repeat and cause stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and choosing actions that reflect personal values. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building on a person’s strengths, while Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and what feels most helpful. Together they will try techniques from different approaches and adjust based on what works in real life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break or scheduling without travel time. They also let people use phone-only or video options depending on bandwidth and comfort. These practical benefits help therapy feel more manageable while trying approaches like EFT or ACT.
