Charmian grew up in London, England and worked for the British Broadcasting Company in the Education and Learning Department. When she moved to America, she decided not to continue her career in broadcasting and pursued a career as a teacher then later as an Addiction Counselor. The Addiction and Recovery community is where it all started for me. As my passion and knowledge grew so did my commitment to help those who are ready to change and live a life of recovery from chemical dependency.

Charmian has a undergraduate degree in Psychology from Rhode Island College in Providence RI and a graduate degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from Salve Regina University in Newport RI. My therapy approach is based on Motivational Interviewing, Meditation and Mindfulness Techniques as well as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques.

Expect support and empowerment - learn and gain the tools to support Recovery from alcohol, drugs and gambling addictions. Learn to work on goals and self-awareness techniques. I am coming from over 15 years dedicated to working with individuals with substance use and mental health challenges. I understand people I understand struggle and stress. Recovery is a health issue and should be seen as such within society.
