About Charolette
Charolette Riale is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Indiana who focuses on helping people facing addictions, trauma, anxiety, and major life changes. She takes a respectful, down-to-earth approach and aims to create a space where people can talk honestly about what they are dealing with.
Her style is supportive and practical, with attention to the person’s goals and everyday struggles. With 16 years of experience, she draws on several approaches to match the moment in session.
Background and approach
That can look like focusing on small, achievable steps to build confidence or using trauma-focused methods when past hurts are getting in the way. She also uses cognitive tools to reduce distressing thoughts and motivational techniques to strengthen commitment to change. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Conversations and strategies are adjusted as progress is made and goals shift. The focus is on what helps you feel more steady, capable, and in control of choices. Charolette pays attention to relationship struggles, parenting stress, grief, and feelings of isolation or emptiness.
She also supports people dealing with anger, control issues, codependency, and substance use concerns. Her work often addresses family of origin themes, forgiveness, and rebuilding a sense of purpose. The process begins with listening and building trust.
From there she helps people identify practical steps, practice new ways of coping, and track change over time. Her aim is to empower clients so they can move toward a more fulfilling life.

Online support
How her approaches fit into online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience, then shaping sessions around what matters most to them. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort feelings and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works with thoughts and behaviors in a step-by-step way to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful patterns. It often involves practical exercises to use between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process aims to keep therapy useful and relevant as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging let someone check in between appointments or use shorter written check-ins when scheduling or time is limited. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life while working on addictions, trauma recovery, stress management, and other goals.
