About Carrie

Carrie also helps people cope after traumatic events, including coping with natural or human-caused disaster. Her approach blends talking therapy with techniques aimed at reducing distress and improving daily functioning.
People who want a practical plan will find her goal-oriented focus helpful. She works to build resilience, reduce symptoms that get in the way of daily life, and strengthen skills for healthier relationships. Prospective clients can expect straightforward guidance and steady support as they work toward change.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Online CBT sessions typically include identifying thoughts that cause distress and practicing concrete strategies to shift them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to reduce distress tied to traumatic memories. In session this can involve guided attention and processing exercises to lessen the intensity of traumatic reactions and improve day-to-day functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carrie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address. She adapts techniques over time based on what is helping and what is not.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use video or phone in ways that let clients focus on practical coping skills, trauma processing, or skills practice without rearranging their whole day.
