I’m a fully licensed CPC clinician who works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, and addiction. Growing up in Europe sparked my curiosity about people and my passion for helping others move toward healing and personal growth.

I take a compassionate, collaborative approach and tailor therapy to each person’s unique experiences. Using evidence-based practices like CBT, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing, I help clients build practical tools to manage emotions, strengthen relationships, and create lasting change.

Therapy can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered.

Hello, I’m Charloth V. Bledsoe, DNP, PMHNP-BC, a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of Nevada, Reno, and have experience providing psychiatric care to children, adolescents, adults, and older adults.

My practice focuses on comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, psychotherapy, and treatment for conditions including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, and substance use disorders. I also have experience providing Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and caring for individuals with complex mental health needs.

I believe mental health care should be individualized, collaborative, and free of judgment. My goal is to create a safe environment where clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment. I work with each person to develop a treatment plan that fits their unique needs, goals, and circumstances.

Whether you are seeking support for a new concern or looking for ongoing psychiatric care, I am committed to helping you work toward greater stability, wellness, and quality of life.

Welcome to my practice!

I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology in 1998 from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and my Master's Degree in Counseling, Marriage and Family Therapy in 2001 from UNLV as well. I have been seeing clients in private practice for over 25 years. I have been an AAMFT Approved Supervisor for over 15 years. I have worked in many capacities, including school counseling, teaching, juvenile justice, and community agency work. In April 2023, I began working as the Clinic Director at UNLV's Center for Individual, Couple, and Family Counseling at Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine. I continue to maintain a small private practice and supervise state interns in MFT and LCPC.

I have expertise in CBT, DBT, ABFT, EFT, and EMDR. I use a combination of attachment-based and trauma-informed theories, which provide strong foundations for healing and skill-building.

I bring 20 years of experience as a social worker across a range of mental health settings, but individual therapy is where I feel most at home. I often work with people navigating life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, and that “stuck” feeling. I also use DBT-informed approaches to help build coping skills and emotional balance.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado, Nevada, and Massachusetts, and have been practicing therapy professionally for over 15 years. Throughout my career, I have been privileged to support many different communities and I bring the skills and knowledge I've learned along the way into the work I do with my clients.

I focus on Sex Therapy, Trauma, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Personal Growth and Development, Men's Issues, and Existential Issues. I utilize several approaches, including: Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Somatic Therapy.

I was born and raised in Montana and have a genuine passion for nature and the outdoors. I received my Bachelors in Psychology at Montana State University in 2001. I then pursued my Masters of Social Work degree and graduated in 2008 from the University of Montana. This graduate program had a focus on providing a social justice and integrated practitioner perspective. I have an eclectic style that can be tailored to each unique individual. My primary therapeutic methods include Mindfulness Based, Holistic, Exposure, Narrative, Cognitive and Behavioral, Strengths Based & Solution Focused Therapies. I provide a non-judgmental and compassionate environment that often helps people feel comfortable. A true passion of mine is structuring therapeutic activities for clients to express, process, increase self-awareness, and de-stress from life’s challenging and developmental experiences.

Most people don't come to therapy because life is perfect. They come because they're tired of living the same painful loop and wondering when something is finally going to change. That's where I come in. I'm Jared, and I work with individuals and couples of all ages across Nevada by telehealth. I help people who feel stuck in patterns rooted in trauma, including anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, and substance use. Whether you're a single parent juggling everything, a couple working to reconnect, or someone tired of carrying it alone, I would love to help.
