Charlotte Schafer

Charlotte Schafer is an LPC with eight years of clinical experience and a background in both secular and faith-informed counseling. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Christian counseling and a Master of Arts in professional counseling from Liberty University. Charlotte completed a residency at Counseling Alliance of Virginia in Charlottesville, where she worked for three years before opening her own small practice.

Her work is integrative, drawing on cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness grounding skills. She is equipped to provide Christian-based counseling when clients desire a faith perspective and often weaves faith-informed elements into broader therapeutic plans.

Charlotte works with individuals, including women, men, and older adults, on a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, ADHD, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting challenges, anger, career concerns, bipolar and depressive conditions, and coping with life changes. She also attends to abandonment and attachment issues, impulsivity, obsessive and compulsive patterns, personality disorder concerns, and women's issues.
