About Charline

Charline Gaskin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Connecticut with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, parenting strain, and anger. Sessions focus on real problems such as snapping at loved ones, work frustration, mounting resentment, and struggles with substance use and impulsivity.

She uses a client-centered, collaborative style. That means the person in therapy helps set goals and pace. Charline emphasizes listening to each person's story and building practical coping skills that fit daily life.

Her work draws on several evidence-based methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice thought patterns and try different responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for regulating emotions and tolerating distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices are used to help people notice their experience and choose actions aligned with their values.

Charline also addresses relationship and family issues, communication problems, attachment and abandonment concerns, and addictions. She brings these topics into sessions in straightforward ways - mapping patterns, practicing new responses, and planning small changes that are doable between meetings.

People who prefer a practical, down-to-earth approach tend to fit well with her style. The focus is on building useful skills, increasing awareness, and trying new behaviors in everyday situations. She works in English and offers services from Connecticut.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Charline commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses, which helps with anxiety, anger, and everyday stress. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling intense reactions without acting on them.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices to help people observe their inner experience and choose actions that match their values. Figuring out which approach fits best is collaborative; the therapist and client explore goals, preferences, and what actually helps in day-to-day life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, family, and travel, and some formats can make brief check-ins or skills practice simpler to schedule. Therapists will work with clients to match session style and frequency to practical needs and goals.
