Charlotte Windom, LPC

Charlotte Windom, LPC, focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strains, anger, depression, and major life changes. She approaches sessions with kindness and practical care. Her manner is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping clients take manageable steps toward feeling better.

Windom uses everyday language in sessions and emphasizes real tools over jargon. She combines approaches like acceptance and commitment techniques, client-centered listening, and cognitive strategies to suit what each person needs. Sessions often include talking through feelings, practicing new ways of responding, and setting small goals to test between meetings.

She brings 16 years of counseling experience across many settings. Her background includes work in private practice, community mental health, university counseling, juvenile court liaison roles, child advocacy, and program coordination for day treatment services. That breadth informs how she matches strategies to the situation in front of her.

Her training began with a Bachelor of Science in Human Services and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Troy University. She is a member of the Chi Sigma Iota honor society and holds an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC.

Windom has worked with children, teens, college students, and adults, and has provided individual, family, couples, in-home, group, and crisis counseling. She also has focused experience supporting people facing chronic pain, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care questions, and family-of-origin or blended family concerns.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and adapting to chronic health issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. It often helps with anxiety, mood, and anger. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on understanding emotional responses and improving how people connect and communicate, which is useful for relationship and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways to combine methods. Together they decide what to try and adjust plans based on what is and isn’t helping.

Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins on difficult days. Some formats also let people choose sessions without being on camera or use shorter meetings when that fits a work break or medical appointment. Talk with the therapist about what will work best given your daily routine and needs.
