Charlotte Kennedy

Charlotte Kennedy is an African American female clinician who holds a Michigan Licensed Master Social Worker credential (MI LMSW 6801086127) earned in 2005 and has seven years of experience providing therapy services.

She has provided therapeutic counseling to children, adults, and families across community and work settings, including involvement with church-affiliated groups, human services, hospital environments, and non-profit community service agencies. Her background also includes experience in macro-level human service management, policy development, and building professional collaborations.

Her practice addresses a range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting skills, anger management, neglect and domestic violence, self-care and conflict resolution, substance use and addictions, relationship and family matters, grief, career and life changes, and compassion fatigue.

Charlotte uses evidence-based methods including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), attachment-based approaches, and solution-focused techniques. She approaches therapy as a process that benefits from patience and a client’s commitment, listening first to gather history and understand needs, then collaborating to set meaningful, attainable goals and strategic interventions that support overall well-being.

Clients are met with respect, empathy, and compassion as they develop coping skills, practical tools, and consistent routines to manage life’s challenges. She encourages taking the first step toward help and stands ready to provide that support.
