Charolette Adams , LSCSW

Charolette Adams, LSCSW, brings 26 years of clinical practice and life-earned perspective to her work with adults and families. As a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker - a credential that indicates advanced training in clinical social work and therapy - she combines formal education with lessons learned outside the classroom to create a practical, grounded approach. She has substantial experience addressing depression, anxiety, and the process of overcoming life obstacles, and she complements that with knowledge of grief, trauma, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and career-related stress.

Adams describes her style as a mix of professional training and personal wisdom gained from a varied life path; having worn many hats, she draws on those roles to help individuals identify what may be holding them back and to move toward a more fulfilling future. She is particularly interested in helping people navigate coping with life changes, intimacy-related issues, family dynamics, and the emotional effects of aging. While she has less professional experience in parenting, alternative lifestyles, and addiction, she is transparent about those limits and focuses her efforts where her experience is strongest.

Based in Kansas, Charolette Adams aims to collaborate with clients in a pragmatic, compassionate way to support meaningful change and growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Charolette Adams draws on client-centered therapy to place each person’s experience at the center of the work - this approach focuses on empathetic listening, building a trusting relationship, and supporting clients to discover their own solutions to problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to help individuals identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be effective for symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy introduces simple awareness practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, helping clients manage difficult emotions and ground themselves during transitions and challenging moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Charolette Adams works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she draws on techniques commonly used by licensed professionals and therapists to tailor care over time.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow for flexible scheduling, reduce travel time, and make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy or changing circumstances. These options can help clients access consistent support in a format that fits their daily life.
