How Carrie’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, life transitions, and finding direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing practical changes in behavior. It often helps with anxiety, depression, stress, and managing mood symptoms. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with relationship struggles, parenting questions, and intimacy-related issues.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Session formats are not detailed in the profile, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let someone join from a different location than their office or home. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively at a distance, and Carrie will work to adapt ACT, CBT, or attachment-focused work to the format you choose.
