About Charles
Charles Bihum is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 35 years of experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and LGBT concerns. He also addresses codependency and related issues such as commitment worries, body image, and life purpose.
Charles begins from a solution-focused base. He helps people name the problems that keep them stuck and then build small, practical steps to change those patterns. Sessions are straightforward and aim to move from surviving toward more satisfying day-to-day living.
He draws on long experience helping people cope with relationship stress, separation and divorce, and the impact of family of origin patterns. People bring issues like abandonment fears, guilt and shame, or struggles around gender identity and sexual culture, and work on concrete ways to respond differently in relationships and choices.
Charles also supports people navigating non-monogamous relationships, polyamory, and kink or alternative sexual cultures without judgment. He speaks from lived experience within the LGBT community and combines that perspective with many years of clinical practice.
Practical problem solving and steady pacing guide his work. He aims to help people test new behaviors, reshape expectations, and reclaim parts of life that feel lost. To begin, he asks clients to identify one small change to try between sessions and then reviews what happened next.
How sessions work
Approaches Charles Uses and how online work fits
Charles works from a solution-focused orientation, which means sessions concentrate on identifying specific problems and trying practical steps to change them. This approach suits people who want clear, short-term goals and simple experiments to test between meetings.He also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques for mood and anxiety concerns. These methods involve learning small behavior changes, tracking how those changes affect daily life, and adjusting plans based on results. That kind of work helps with worry, low mood, relationship patterns, and codependency-related habits.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Charles will help clients pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust as progress is made. He invites feedback and focuses on what produces usable change in everyday life.
