About Charlotte
Charlotte Beachem is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan who helps people tackle parenting stress and related life challenges. She draws on 23 years of experience to offer steady, practical support for parents feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure what to do next.
Charlotte focuses on everyday problems like anxiety, depression, grief, sleep and eating struggles, addiction, and relationship or intimacy troubles. She also helps with issues connected to attachment, abandonment, blended family tension, and caregiving strain.
Background and approach
Her aim is to restore hope and build on what each person already does well. Her style is straightforward and compassionate. Sessions include listening, clear feedback, and simple tools people can try between meetings.
She uses a mix of approaches so work in therapy can be practical and tailored to real-life needs. Charlotte uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based work, and Client-Centered therapy. That blend supports both short-term problem solving and deeper changes in how people relate to themselves and others.
She invites parents to explore small steps that add up to bigger change. The focus is on gaining confidence, making better choices, and finding more satisfaction in daily life. Charlotte aims to help people move from stuck or reactive patterns toward calmer, clearer ways of coping.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and still act on what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and when someone wants clearer values-based action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior, and teaches practical skills to shift patterns that keep problems going. It often suits stress, sleep or eating issues, and mood concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers several practical advantages. Video calls let people have a face-to-face style session without travel. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging provide quick check-ins, brief coaching, or a way to process thoughts between full sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and changing routines.
