    About Charles

    Charles “Andrew” Baskin is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, anger, and low self-esteem. He works with clients who are juggling life changes, caregiver strain, communication problems, and issues tied to men’s mental health. His first aim is to make it easier to talk about what’s hardest right now.

    He has 14 years of clinical experience and practices in Tennessee as an LMFT. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps, not jargon. He uses straightforward methods to help people see small changes that add up over time.

    Andrew shapes each session to the person in front of him. He listens for what matters most, then helps people try out different ways of coping and communicating. He invites curiosity about patterns and offers tools to manage strong emotions and distressing memories.

    His work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Those approaches are used to help clients understand thoughts and feelings, strengthen important relationships, and find inner motivation for change.

    Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to process difficult moments and practice new skills. The focus is on building resilience and on everyday strategies that support real life. Andrew aims to help people move toward clearer choices and more satisfying relationships.

  2. How approaches translate to online therapy

    Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change by exploring what matters most to them and reducing mixed feelings; it can be useful for shifting habits, commitment, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments and behavior changes to ease anxiety and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on understanding emotional responses and improving how people express needs and connect in relationships.

    Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can change as progress is made or new concerns appear.

    The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fit with work and family schedules and fewer barriers to keeping regular sessions. Some people appreciate shorter check-ins by phone when time or bandwidth is tight, while others prefer longer sessions for deeper conversation. Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available online options before booking to make sure they match your needs.
