About Charlotte

Charlotte Cox is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who brings 42 years of clinical experience to her practice in Pennsylvania. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help clients clarify problems and build practical coping strategies.

Background and approach

Charlotte emphasizes identifying strengths and workable solutions while empowering people to take active steps toward change. Her work often addresses stress, anxiety, parenting struggles, self-esteem challenges, career concerns, and navigating major life transitions.

Over decades of practice she has also supported clients facing trauma, including combat-related trauma, and provided counseling around end-of-life issues, grief, guilt, and workplace difficulties. She aims to help each person recognize their own expertise in their story and to develop skills that increase confidence and day-to-day functioning.

Charlotte encourages the courage it takes to begin therapy and offers a collaborative, strengths-focused approach that helps clients set goals and practice new ways of coping. Sessions are offered through multiple online formats to fit practical needs and schedules.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life



Charlotte draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and adjust unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this approach is commonly used for stress, anxiety, sleep disruption, and practical problem solving. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values, accept difficult feelings, and take committed actions aligned with what matters most in their life.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore which methods feel most useful based on goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs, adjusting strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and for those who need an alternative to in-person visits. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice techniques between sessions, and access support from home or work when timing and location matter.
