About Charlie
Charlie Eliza Boutillette is a licensed professional counselor with 27 years of experience based in Colorado. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Parents often contact her about parenting strain and family tension.
She also supports people coping with addiction, trauma and abuse, bipolar challenges, anger, self-esteem, and career stress. She uses a practical, person-focused style in sessions. Conversations are grounded in the client's story and everyday life.
Background and approach
That means listening closely, asking useful questions, and helping people spot patterns that matter. Narrative Therapy is one of the approaches she draws on to help people reframe their stories and notice strengths. She also uses client-centered methods to keep the pace and goals set by the person in therapy.
Mindfulness techniques and solution-focused strategies are woven in when they fit the need. Her work is collaborative. She helps people set short-term goals and test small changes between sessions.
Motivational interviewing supports shifts in behavior when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about change. Sessions aim to be straightforward and actionable. Over time, clients practice skills for stress management, clearer communication, and steadier mood.
People leave with tools they can use at home, at work, and in relationships.

Online session options
How narrative and client-centered work online
Charlie uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from difficult problems and see how their life stories shape daily behavior. This approach helps when someone feels stuck in a negative storyline and wants to find different ways of moving forward. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of her practice and focuses on following the person's lead, matching the pace and goals to what feels right for them.Mindfulness techniques are used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, which can help with anxiety, stress, and mood shifts. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to decide which approaches fit best, adapting methods as goals and needs change. Finding the right mix is part of the therapy process rather than a one-time decision.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit during a break, and messaging or live chat lets people check in between meetings or use shorter updates. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
