Your relationship with your therapist is one of the most significant factors in the success of therapy.
​I hope that this website gives you a sense of me and my work to help you decide whether I could be a good support for you. 

ABOUT ME

I am a British immigrant who has lived and worked in the UK, New Zealand, and Hong Kong. I moved to the Bay Area in 2001. For the last 15 years I have specialized in working with clients struggling with the effects of childhood trauma and substance use. I have managed intensive therapeutic settings and outpatient programs. I have trained and supervised therapists. To ensure that I can be as effective as possible in supporting clients wrestling with complex challenges, I have trained intensively in multiple ways of working through the effects of difficult childhood experiences.

TESTIMONIALS

“It is a wonderful privilege to publicly post the collaborative relationship I treasure with Dr. Charlotte Ormond, a highly trained and professional psychologist that has supported so many clients over the 15 years we have worked together. It is my experience, that Dr. Ormond, can hear every client's story from a strength-based, client focused, empathic perspective and utilizing her many specialized training and skills, provide awareness and perspective to each story. Dr. Ormond is an asset to the field of psychology, and if a client is searching for someone who will hear them, see them, believe them, and perhaps most of all connect with them, Dr. Ormond is a perfect fit.” --Clarise Blanchard, Ph.D., LMFT
