About Carrie
Carrie believes people’s actions link closely to their thinking. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help shift unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas and emotion-focused work to help people tolerate difficult feelings while moving toward what matters to them.
Her experience spans 16 years across a variety of concerns. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and addictions. She also supports work around relationships, intimacy, parenting, sleep and eating issues, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and the effects of caregiving and chronic illness.
This work often focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions. That might include testing new ways of responding, practicing emotion regulation skills, or setting small goals that reflect personal values. Sessions emphasize collaboration and clear next steps so progress is easier to track.
People coming for help can expect straightforward conversation, a focus on what matters to them, and a plan they can actually use. Carrie aims to be a steady presence while people navigate life’s changes and challenges.

Therapy approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for life transitions, stress, anxiety, and low mood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thought patterns that get in the way and testing new behaviors to make daily life feel better. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own goals and pacing, offering a supportive space where the therapist follows the client’s lead and helps them decide what to try next.Finding the right way of working is part of therapy itself. Carrie will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice is revisited as progress is made so the work stays useful and relevant.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them here. Online therapy can make sessions easier to fit into a busy day, reduce commute time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be hard to schedule. It also supports trying skills at home between sessions and discussing how to use new tools in everyday routines.
