About Charles
Charles “Andrew” Baskin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Tennessee with 14 years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. He also pays attention to caregiver stress, communication problems, men's issues, and building self-love. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
Andrew uses practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. He applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Emotionally-Focused Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and motivational interviewing. In session, he helps people identify patterns, try small behavioral experiments, and track what changes.
His style is straightforward and task-oriented. People can expect clear goals, short exercises to practice between meetings, and direct feedback about what is and is not working. He supports people in improving communication, reducing overwhelm, and managing strong emotions.
Andrew’s background includes over a decade of working with adults facing life transitions and role-based stress like caregiving. He draws on multiple approaches so interventions can be practical and focused on everyday problems. The goal is to develop skills that fit into a person's routine.
To start, he asks about the immediate problem, recent attempts to cope, and what would feel different after a few sessions. That information shapes an initial plan of specific strategies, homework tasks, and review points to monitor progress.
How his approaches translate to online care
Charles “Andrew” Baskin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in ways that fit remote sessions. CBT involves spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes, which can be done over video or phone by setting clear goals and reviewing homework. EFT focuses on patterns in close relationships and on identifying emotion-driven interaction cycles; it translates into focused conversations and exercises that help clarify feelings and responses.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. He will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, checking in after initial sessions to see what is most helpful and adjusting the plan accordingly.

Online work can make sessions easier to fit into a weekday or a break from work, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time for those with busy schedules. Licensed professionals often use a mix of structured skill practice and conversational review in remote sessions to help people apply skills in daily life.
