About Charlotte
Charlotte Lajoie is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL LMHC) with 18 years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with relationship strain, trauma or abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She also offers coaching-style support for people seeking clearer goals and practical steps forward.
Charlotte began her career in a psychiatric hospital and in community mental health before moving into private practice. That background informs a direct, practical approach to common problems like communication struggles, abandonment and attachment issues, and coping with chronic illness or caregiver stress. She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods in sessions rather than technical language.
Her work draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions and attachment patterns shape close relationships. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. Client-Centered and Attachment-Based ideas guide how she listens and responds in session.
Sessions often include mindfulness exercises and attention to nervous-system responses alongside cognitive strategies. Practical concerns Charlotte helps with include body image, guilt and shame, forgiveness, impulse control, and navigating separation or divorce. She also supports people facing first responder stress, hoarding, and end-of-life caregiving challenges.
Charlotte works in Florida and conducts sessions in English. Fees vary by location and are paid through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Approaches used in remote sessions
Charlotte uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name the emotions that shape their close relationships and interactions. EFT is aimed at shifting interaction patterns by bringing attention to moment-to-moment emotional experience and attachment needs.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small actions toward them, especially when difficult thoughts or feelings get in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and build practical coping skills for stress, guilt, and mood shifts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charlotte will discuss options and try methods together based on your goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus more on emotions, acceptance and values, or cognitive strategies.
