Charles Zaglin, LPC

Charles Zaglin is a Georgia-licensed trauma and PTSD psychotherapist who brings more than two decades of clinical experience to his work. He is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor, a state credential that authorizes him to provide counseling services in Georgia. In addition to many years in direct clinical practice, he has engaged in research and has observed the development of trauma treatment since before PTSD was formally recognized in 1980. He also speaks from long personal experience as a survivor of trauma, which informs a compassionate and realistic understanding of recovery.

His therapeutic stance is grounded in empathy, openness, honesty, and active collaboration. He emphasizes creating a space where people can tell their stories without fear of negative judgment and where meaning and self-empowerment are central goals. Influenced by existential ideas and an eclectic toolkit, he helps clients explore how trauma fits into their broader life story without allowing it to define them.

Charles recognizes the many layers of difficulty that can follow traumatic exposure, from depression and anxiety to sleep problems and other disruptions that may not be immediately visible. He works with each person to design a tailored plan focused on their specific needs rather than simply giving what is immediately wanted. He invites individuals and couples who are ready for honest, dedicated work toward growth and greater well-being to reach out for support.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Charles Zaglin draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where people are guided to explore their feelings and grow at their own pace. This approach is helpful for building self-understanding and strengthening resilience.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, goal-oriented method that helps identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT is often effective for problems such as anxiety, depression, and stress-related symptoms.

Charles incorporates Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) principles when working with attachment and relationship concerns, helping individuals and couples understand emotional responses and improve connection and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Charles works collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions offer flexibility and easier access to consistent support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow therapy to fit into busy schedules, facilitate ongoing contact between sessions when helpful, and make it simpler to receive care from home or another convenient location.
