Evon Charles, MSW, LSW

Treats ages: 5-65+

Evon is a compassionate and experienced therapist who works with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. Her professional background spans family preservation services, early childhood education, and nonprofit community outreach—experiences that inform her deeply relational and integrative approach to therapy.

​

No matter the setting, Evon’s mission remains consistent: to support individuals and families in building resilience, strengthening relationships, and navigating life’s challenges with greater clarity and confidence.

Evon uses a humanistic, client-centered approach, meeting people where they are and walking alongside them in their journey toward healing and growth. She believes that meaningful, healthy relationships begin within the self and radiate outward—to partners, children, extended family, and the broader community.

​

Her therapeutic work is grounded in evidence-based practices including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Play Therapy. She tailors her approach to each individual’s needs, ensuring care is thoughtful, relevant, and effective.

​

Clients often describe Evon as empathetic, relatable, and genuine. She creates a warm, supportive space where individuals feel seen, heard, and empowered to move forward.
