Charles Shepard

I chose to enter the field of professional counseling with the goal of easing the suffering and promoting the well-being of individuals and families who have historically had limited access to quality mental healthcare. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families who represent the prism of humanity, and much of my work has been aimed at ensuring that barriers to service are reduced or eliminated. I have practiced in a variety of settings, from community-based and interdisciplinary clinics to on-campus college student counseling centers. I approach my work through the lens of Attachment Theory.
