Dylan Charpentier , LCSW

Dylan Charpentier is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over five years of experience supporting both youth and adults. He creates a compassionate, non-judgmental space where people can explore practical strategies for managing difficult thoughts, emotions, and life situations. Dylan emphasizes straightforward, easy-to-use tools that clients can apply in daily life to move toward the goals that matter to them.

His clinical work has addressed a broad range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, and family-related issues. A significant portion of his practice has focused on substance misuse and LGBTQIA+ matters, bringing focused experience to those areas. Dylan centers each person’s lived experience and preferences, collaborating with clients to choose and practice strategies that align with their needs and priorities.

As an LCSW - a licensed clinical social worker trained to provide psychotherapy and clinical support - Dylan prioritizes meeting clients where they are and empowering them with skills that fit their lives. His approach is practical, respectful, and tailored to help people build the life they want to live.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Dylan commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - it focuses on building a values-driven life rather than trying to eliminate every uncomfortable feeling. He also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach practical techniques for emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance - these tools can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship challenges. Mindfulness Therapy appears across his work as well, offering simple attention and awareness practices that support stress reduction and clearer decision-making.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dylan works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors the selection and pacing of techniques so clients can practice what feels most useful for them.

Online therapy with Dylan is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals and to integrate therapy into everyday life without extra travel or disruption.
