Charlotte Straub

My communication style

I believe in treating all people with unconditional positive regard and establishing mutual trust and respect. I want to support you to draw on your strengths and reframe negative situations into opportunities to learn and grow. The skills we learn in therapy can be practiced in the safety of the therapy space and implemented in day-to-day life.

My journey to mental healthcare

I had two strong, positive, and nurturing chosen-family role models who showed me that I am valuable, worthy, seen, and loved. This guided me towards wanting to help others discover these feelings. I have seen firsthand the benefits and joys of seeing people grow within a positive and supportive network.

My goals for you

There is no goal too trivial or too challenging in a therapeutic setting. I will support you with skill-building and equipping you with the tools you need to achieve your goals, based on the foundations of attachment theory, family systems, positive psychology, and trauma-informed care.

Our first session

During our first session, we will have an opportunity to get to know each other. I will gather background information, inquire what led you to seek therapy, and we'll discuss your expectations. I will inform you about a few policies and procedures and allow time for any questions or concerns. We will collaboratively set goals to work on in therapy.
