Professional Interests/Specializations

Over the years, Charles has worked with a variety of concerns and populations, however, supporting college students has been a consistent focus in his work. College students are often in a sensitive period of growth that leaves them open to exploration, processing, and reflecting on current, future, and past concerns. He chose to work in college health because he finds value in helping young people, particularly Queer people, navigate their lives, stressors, and identities.
