Charmain Falode, MHC-LP
Hi there! Thanks for clicking on my bio. My name is Charmain. I am a graduate of Alfred University with a Master's in Mental Health Counseling, as well as a BSc in Psychology from The University of East London, United Kingdom. Born and bred in South London, I now call Brooklyn home.
My journey began as a performing artist with an extensive background in film, classical ballet, modern dance, television, voice-over, comedic writing and theatre. I have performed in numerous stage productions in America and the United Kingdom. I have also worked as a senior-level corporate Executive Assistant within the financial sector.
Through this plethora of work experience. My focus and alignment felt “positive and organic” within the field of mental health counseling and wellness. This desire led to my experience working with juvenile offenders with mental health issues, alongside adults and couples. I utilize a humanistic approach with a strong focus on cognitive behavioral therapy, with a belief that one day all individuals know that mental health wellness is a given right and accessible to all.
When life becomes challenging, we can experience feelings like despair, hopelessness, anxiety, and uncertainty. Many of these emotions can bring up a sense of fear and a lack of direction. These emotions often leave people asking, "Will I ever feel whole or better again? Do I even belong?" Therapy can help you navigate through difficult times and transitions with excellent results. My work with clients focuses on building resilience and self-compassion in a judgment-free zone.
