About me
One of the most rewarding processes I have ever been a part of has been helping individuals and couples navigate through the relationship world. I have extensive experience on the various stages of relationships, including healthy dating, love & intimacy, sex, putting “us” back in trust (i.e. infidelity issues), break-ups/divorces, and grieving & learning from a loss of a relationship. Regardless of where each individual/couple enters into the therapeutic process, there is a common thread of wanting to be desired, wanted, and having an unconditional connection.
From my experience, not every situation is the same and is solved with a simple, “I love you.” I believe in a holistic approach to wellness in which a healthy mind, body, and soul lead to a happier, more fulfilling life. I look to strengthen the core of each individual and couple to be able to strive, not just survive, through difficult moments. I provide tools and resources for short-term and long-term growth. I attempt to break down the stereotypes of what it means to be in a relationship while helping individuals define personal goals for growth. I believe with open communication, trust, and a shared vision, anyone can have the relationship they've always been looking for.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ian Charnley. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Ian does a great job and knows what to say to keep us on track.
Excellent therapist who listens to all sides, provides excellent information and really cares. All you can ask for.
Would recommend.
Ian is very helpful. He doesn’t ask or need to hear about specific issues but gets to the problem as a whole. He has been very helpful.
Ian has been incredible. He is compassionate, listens, truly asks the right questions, and offers great steps and practices to apply. I couldn't recommend him enough.
Great therapist and receive great advice!
Ian explained clearly that he was learning how I think and that he would talk with me about how I process information and relationships. It made a lot of sense and he helped organize my thoughts.
Ian has been instrumental in helping me, my husband and our family. He’s incredibly relatable, extremely caring, exceeds expectations and is readily available to help YOU. Ian has made impactful changes in our life and our relationship by offering functional advice and validating our individual needs. Excellent therapist that helps you meet your goals and guides you through setbacks and successes with ease. Thank you Ian!
Very good
I think he’s doing a great job, I feel like he really listens to us as he brings up things from previous sessions, and remembers what we have said about past experiences. I feel like he gives good homework for us, and what he tells us is valuable.
He is very good.
Ian is very friendly and understanding. He seems to really actively listen to both partners. Highly recommend
Great experience
Ian is very responsive and gives concrete advices that we can use in our lives. I feel better since we are discussing issues together and strongly recommend his expertise.
Ian is a great counselor and really listens to both partners. I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking new ideas for their relationship.
I am currently sessioning with Ian. I enjoy talking with him, appreciating his insights, encouragement, compassion & perspective.
Ian's positive energy is contagious, in sessions were you feel lost in the fog it is a welcome becon guiding you back to your centre. I'm very thankful to be able to be connecting with him.
Amazing!!!!
