Dara Charlton (LCSW)

As a licensed therapist in Oregon with two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, grief, and personal growth. I offer compassionate, depth-oriented support for adults seeking meaningful transformation. My therapeutic approach is holistic and tailored, addressing a wide range of life experiences—from workplace stress and relationship struggles to identity exploration and healing from past traumas. I’m particularly passionate about supporting individuals through transitions, helping them develop stronger self-understanding, communication skills, and emotional resilience. I believe in creating a warm, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their inner world, challenge limiting beliefs, and cultivate self-compassion. My goal is to empower you to reconnect with your inherent strengths and move toward the life you envision for yourself.
