Saskia Charles, LMHC

Saskia Charles is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 17 years of experience. She commonly supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, addiction concerns, family conflict, and issues related to identity and relationships. Saskia also lists anger and sleep problems among her clinical focuses.

Her background spans residential care, in-home services, addictions treatment, and outpatient programs. That variety shows up in how she structures sessions - practical, direct, and informed by many settings. She uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method, and adapts what she does to the presenting concern.

Saskia draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on what matters to the client. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that feed anger, anxiety, or mood shifts. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques can come into play for managing intense emotions and improving coping skills.

She also incorporates elements of Motivational Interviewing when change feels stalled, and existential ideas when clients want to examine values and purpose. In practice this means sessions include problem-solving, skill practice, and straightforward reflection rather than abstract theory.

Saskia aims to motivate change and reduce distress through focused work on daily problems and relationships. People who are frustrated by recurring arguments, rising resentment, or trouble sleeping may find the sessions practical and action oriented. She offers help in English for adults living in Florida.
