Marriage & Family Therapy – Charlotte Parker, LMFT
Oakland, California is home to the private practice of Charlotte Parker, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist holding a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University. With more than 20 years of clinical experience, Parker works with adult individuals and couples throughout the Bay Area and statewide via telehealth appointments.
Her clinical focus covers a broad range of presenting concerns: anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, life transitions, work and career challenges, stress management, and interpersonal conflict resolution. Parker describes her approach as culturally sensitive and draws on several evidence-informed frameworks, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, behavioral therapy, family and marital therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and strength-based methods. Sessions additionally incorporate mindfulness techniques, emotionally focused strategies, somatic work, and cognitive tools, with the combination shaped to each client’s circumstances and stated goals. The practice treats individual adults and couples; Parker does not list child or adolescent services on her site.
Telehealth availability allows clients anywhere in California to access sessions without traveling to an office location. An online client portal is provided for scheduling, secure messaging, and account management.
The website states specific fees: individual therapy is offered at $180 to $210 per session, and couples sessions are priced at $200 to $250. Parker lists several insurance carriers whose plans she accepts, including Anthem, Blue Shield, Optum, Managed Health Networks, Aetna, Claremont EAP, and United Healthcare. Online payment options are available for both insurance-covered and self-pay clients.
