About Bradley
Bradley Charbonneau is an LCSW with ten years of experience in clinical social work in Arkansas. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues related to identity and sexuality. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Bradley uses practical, evidence-informed methods to address worry and avoidance. He works with people who struggle with panic, social anxiety, obsessions and compulsions, grief, addiction, and life changes. The focus is on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of responding in everyday situations.
His approach centers on clear goals and short-term strategies people can try between sessions. Bradley draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to break problems into specific thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. He also uses Motivational Interviewing to support changes people want to make and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small steps that build momentum.
In sessions he talks through what is happening now and outlines practical exercises to practice outside the session. Those exercises might include thought records, behavioral experiments, or brief goal-setting tasks. Progress is reviewed regularly so the plan can be adjusted as needed.
People often contact him for help with sleep problems, self-esteem, parenting stress, career pressure, and trauma-related concerns. He also supports issues such as gender dysphoria, HIV/AIDS-related stress, immigration concerns, and compassion fatigue. To begin, clients follow the platform steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Bradley applies practical approaches in online sessions
Bradley uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. That helps people spot patterns that keep anxiety or low mood going and try short experiments to test different responses. Motivational Interviewing is used to clarify personal reasons for change and to build commitment to small, achievable steps. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses the work on immediate, concrete goals and on identifying what already helps.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Bradley collaborates with each person to pick approaches that match their goals and preferences. He reviews progress and changes course when a strategy is not helping.

Practical tools used in online sessions include guided behavioral experiments, thought records to complete between meetings, and specific action steps to practice in daily life.
