Our Story
Hi my names is Charlotte Schott. I am a Christian Counselor who specializes in relationship Counseling. I have completed level 2 of the Gottman Relationship Counseling and use their materials in my practice. I pursued relationship counseling because I noticed how important relationships are to everyone I have met. When people struggled in relationships they struggled in every other part of their lives. However when people felt supported and loved in their relationships they thrived. I am thrilled to use the Gottman approach because I have personally witnessed how effective this method has been for my own clients. I have clients that tell me that if they had not come to me they would be in divorce court. The Gottman approach is based upon 40 years of research done by John Gottman. One thing I especially like about it is that I get to use assessments to see exactly where the couples need help. This eliminates wasting time trying to figure out where the problems are for the couples. Another great thing about the Gottman approach is that it’s methods are completely consistent with the teachings of the Bible. So if you are struggling in your relationship I would love to help you.
My other focus in my counseling is trauma counseling. I am a Certified Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Counselor. I integrate Biblical teachings into my counseling if the child and family are open to that. I have been able to help many children overcome their trauma. Trauma can be the reason for aggressive behavior, high anxiety, difficulty sleeping and other problems. I help the child to understand their trauma. The child learns to use coping skills to cope with the uncomfortable feelings that they have and to overcome trauma triggers. I also help the child to correct thoughts that they have as a result of their therapy so that they have more true and helpful thoughts. The joy the children feel after they complete trauma counseling makes my job worth it!
