Compassionate therapist blending body and talk work
About Charlie
Charlie Eliza Boutillette is a licensed professional counselor in Colorado who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She also supports those facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, anger, low self-esteem, career decisions, and bipolar-related issues. Her style is steady and practical, aimed at helping people take small steps that make day-to-day life easier.
Boutillette blends talk-based work with attention to how the body responds to emotion.
Background and approach
She listens closely and uses somatic practices alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches to help people feel more grounded. Sessions focus on clear goals, present concerns, and coping tools clients can use between meetings. With 27 years of experience, she draws on a wide range of strategies, including motivational interviewing and narrative techniques.
These methods help people clarify their values, notice patterns, and find motivation to change. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. People can expect straightforward conversations about what’s happening now and what would feel different if things improved.
Boutillette emphasizes practical skills and a plan for moving forward rather than lengthy theory discussions. She supports clients in building more reliable routines and healthier reactions to stress. Sessions are offered in English and available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and clients follow an initial matching and scheduling process to begin therapy.
How somatic and mindful methods work online
Somatic Therapy pays attention to how the body holds stress and emotion. Online sessions can include guided body awareness, breath work, and gentle grounding practices to help people notice and shift physical tension that links to feelings of anxiety or overwhelm.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful, non-judgmental relationship. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what is said, and helps clarify priorities so goals emerge from the person’s own values and experience.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple present-moment skills. Practices include short breathing exercises, noticing thoughts without judgment, and building small daily habits that lower reactivity and improve mood.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. Plans can change over time as progress and preferences evolve.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, review short exercises between visits, and check in quickly when issues arise. Many people find that the variety of formats helps them stay consistent with therapy while balancing everyday life.
