About Charniece

Charniece C. Scott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, family problems, parenting strain, anger, and life changes. She also supports concerns such as ADHD, bipolar mood issues, self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

Charniece practices in a conversational, person-focused way. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, EMDR, and mindfulness strategies. Sessions typically involve listening, reflecting, and helping clients identify patterns in emotion and behavior. Practical tools and coping strategies are offered when helpful.

Her background includes a decade of work as a family therapist and as a behavioral health provider in a high school setting. That experience informs how she talks with clients about family of origin issues, blended family challenges, caregiving stress, and communication problems.

In sessions she pays attention to attachment-related concerns such as abandonment, commitment issues, and codependency. She also supports people navigating divorce, separation, cancer-related stress, forgiveness work, and the emptiness that can follow major life events.

Charniece asks people to use an online matching questionnaire to begin. The site uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time; costs vary by location. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Charniece uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with hard-to-identify emotions and attachment patterns. EFT focuses on feelings and interactional patterns, which can help when stress, relationship patterns, or abandonment issues are central concerns.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes clear listening and supportive reflection to help people organize their thoughts and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is employed to bring practical tools for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior, useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with clients about goals, try different techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps most. That shared process guides which methods are used in ongoing sessions.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so people can attend from a convenient location. Discussing preferences ahead of the first appointment helps set a practical plan for scheduling, session length, and the techniques to use during remote work.
