Charlie Wolfe

Charlie Wolfe

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


Hello, I'm Charlie Wolfe, LCPC, C-DBT, and I cover the entire state of Maryland. My journey into the world of mental health began with a profound personal experience. A traumatic event early in my life redirected my path from becoming a neurologist to exploring the depths of human relationships and mental health. This experience not only shaped my career but also instilled in me a passion for extreme sports like rock climbing and base jumping, as I refused to let trauma define me. Instead, I chose to become a survivor and help others do the same.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy, and I draw from various methods, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (C-DBT), Grief Counsel (CGP), Trauma-Informed Care (CCTP), Multicultural Care, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Style. Mindfulness Practices (CMIP), Anger Management, and Pain Management. I believe that change is not easy and often uncomfortable, but it is essential for growth. My goal is to help you rewrite your story and embrace the changes necessary for a fulfilling life. I hold post-graduate certification in trauma, mindfulness, grief all through the lens of being a DBT therapist.

If you are ready to embrace change and discover your potential, let's work together to achieve your goals. Reach out, and let's start this transformative journey together. Alway understand my practice motto; "You are the expert of you." "One team," "Do what I say I will," "Responsible," "Diversity and inclusion," and "Learning and development in clients as much as self." My sole internal agenda for you is self-inspiration!

Dr. Olukemi Omogoke

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Maryland


You should know that I take your concerns seriously, and I will meet you with compassion, respect, and zero judgment. I understand that reaching out for mental health support can feel intimidating, especially if you have faced stigma, felt dismissed in the past, or worried about what a diagnosis might mean. My goal is to help you feel safe and at ease from the very first conversation.

As a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over eight years of experience in psychiatric and mental health care, I work with individuals across the lifespan. I commonly support people navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, stress-related concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other emotional or behavioral health challenges. I approach each person as a whole, not a label, and I take the time to understand your symptoms in the context of your life, your stressors, your strengths, and your goals.

In our work together, you can expect a collaborative, patient-centered approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard and involved, so we will discuss what you are experiencing, what has helped or not helped in the past, and what you want to be different moving forward. If medication is part of your care, I prioritize thoughtful, evidence-based decisions, clear education about options, and ongoing adjustments based on your response and preferences. I also value practical strategies and supportive guidance that you can apply between sessions.

Most importantly, I am passionate about each person I serve because I know you are important, and I recognize the courage it takes to seek help. My role is to offer steady, professional support and a trusting relationship as you work toward clarity, stability, and lasting wellness.
