Charles Allen, LPC

Charles Allen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing privately in Georgia. After four decades in church music ministry, he left full-time ministry to pursue formal training in psychology, earning a master’s degree in Psychology from Argosy University in 1995. He then spent fifteen years working in public mental health before opening a solo private practice in 2010, where he continues to offer counseling services.

His primary focus is working with couples who are preparing for marriage and with partners who want to restore their relationship to a healthier place. He is a Level 3 Gottman Therapist, bringing specific training in relationship assessment and interventions to his couple work. He identifies with traditional marriage values and draws on his own long marriage - he has been married since 1965 - when supporting couples who are willing to try again.

In addition to couples work, he serves as a Court Approved Counselor providing anger management counseling for individuals who are court ordered, and he also accepts people who seek help with anger without a court mandate. He welcomes conversations about individual needs and how his background and approach might fit a person’s goals.
