Charissa Bogle, LCSW

Charissa Bogle is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Tennessee with 14 years of practice. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can start to make small, practical changes.

Charissa uses practical tools to help people manage intense emotions and improve daily functioning. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Sessions often include learning new coping skills, practicing emotion regulation, and improving communication patterns.

Her background includes work with neurodivergent people and LGBTQ+ communities, and several years supporting people affected by trauma. She also has experience in behavioral interventions for autistic clients and in treating symptoms related to PTSD and substance use in military and veteran settings at the federal level.

Charissa emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person’s story. She encourages clients to build on existing strengths and to try small, doable steps toward their goals. The approach is straightforward and focused on real-life problems rather than labels.

People seeking help for abandonment concerns, attachment issues, codependency, commitment struggles, communication or control problems, body image, caregiver stress, or coping after disasters may find her background relevant. She works in English and practices in Tennessee.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, so they can focus on actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and relationship struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with anxiety, mood, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which is useful for strong emotions and relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day life. This can mean trying one approach first and adjusting as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on hectic days. They also let people use tools like worksheets or skill practice between meetings, which supports steady progress without changing daily routines.
