About Charlise

Charlise Bell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain, and addresses concerns like parenting, grief, trauma and bipolar challenges. Charlise uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing in her work.

She focuses on practical conversations that help clients notice what is getting in the way and try different ways of responding. Sessions often look at thoughts, behaviors, and moment-to-moment choices that affect mood and relationships. Charlise also helps people who are wrestling with self-esteem, workplace stress, guilt, and forgiveness.

Parents and young adults often bring concerns about blended family dynamics, communication problems, or disruptive mood issues. She talks through parenting strain and family conflict in plain language and works on concrete skills for de-escalation and clearer communication. When trauma or grief are present, she attends to current safety and coping before moving into deeper material.

Charlise aims to shape therapy around each person's goals using client-centered methods and motivational interviewing to build momentum. She integrates CBT techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors between sessions. The emphasis is on short, doable steps that fit into everyday life.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to remote work

Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's concerns and priorities. It focuses on listening, reflecting what the client says, and adjusting the pace and topics to match what matters most. This approach is useful for building clarity about goals and feeling heard.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete experiments and homework. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and workplace or relationship patterns because it breaks problems into manageable steps.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find internal reasons to change and resolves mixed feelings about taking action. It works well when someone wants help increasing motivation for tasks like parenting changes, lifestyle adjustments, or following through on treatment plans.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process may shift as progress is made and priorities change.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which remote formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent while they work on specific skills and goals.
