About Carrie
She uses straightforward methods to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and build coping skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques are part of her toolkit for addressing unhelpful thoughts and daily stress. Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to change habits related to substance use or health goals.
Her work is trauma-informed, which means she pays attention to how past events affect present reactions. Sessions aim to make problems easier to talk about and easier to manage. Treatment plans are shaped around each person’s priorities rather than a one-size-fits-all script.
Carrie trained in counseling and holds a Master of Science in Counseling. Her background includes long-term clinical work with adults facing a wide range of concerns, from chronic stress and ADHD to grief and complex family history issues.
She frames therapy as a collaborative process. People who see her can expect clear, compassionate feedback and practical steps to try between sessions. To begin, readers are asked to use the Start Therapy button and complete the matching questionnaire.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions typically involve identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new skills between meetings to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These techniques can be practiced during and between online sessions to help with stress, anger, and emotional ups and downs.
Finding the right approach is a shared task. Carrie will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and day-to-day life. She adjusts pace and tools based on feedback so therapy fits how someone likes to work.
The therapist biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time for appointments. Licensed professionals can still use worksheets, guided practices, and goal-setting in remote sessions to support progress without changing the core methods used in person.
