Charles Zaglin , LPC

Charles Zaglin is a licensed Trauma and PTSD psychotherapist based in Georgia with 23 years of clinical experience. As an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - he has worked as both a practicing traumatologist and a researcher, bringing a long-term personal and professional familiarity with trauma to his work. He also identifies as a survivor of trauma for over 40 years, a perspective that informs his understanding of the long arc of recovery and resilience.

His therapeutic stance is grounded in empathy, openness, honesty, and active collaboration. He combines a client-centered emphasis on presence and attunement with an existential focus on meaning and self-empowerment, using an eclectic toolkit to address the complex layers that often accompany traumatic exposure. Zaglin recognizes that trauma and related conditions such as depression, anxiety, and sleep disruption are only parts of a person’s life and seeks to help individuals regain agency without allowing those experiences to define them.

Work with him involves tailoring a treatment plan to the specific needs of each person rather than delivering what feels merely desirable. He stresses the importance of acknowledging the continuing effects of traumatic events as a key step in healing, and he approaches that process with directness and commitment to client growth. His practice addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief, compassion fatigue, and caregiving and family-related issues.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Charles Zaglin integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and existential therapy in his practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental stance in which the therapist listens deeply and supports the client's self-directed growth, helping with issues like grief, anxiety, and relationship struggles. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of stress, depression, and anxiety and to build practical coping skills. Existential therapy explores questions of meaning, choice, and identity, offering support to people facing life transitions, loss, or a sense of emptiness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This partnership helps tailor interventions over time so they remain relevant and effective.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, online therapy provides greater flexibility for scheduling and access. These options allow therapists and licensed professionals to meet clients where they are, accommodate caregiving or work responsibilities, and maintain continuity of care even when in-person sessions are not possible.
