Self-care involves engaging in the challenging task of looking within, breaking free from habit energies that keep us stuck.  My role is to help you identify what keeps you stuck, make a plan to get unstuck and support you in practicing the skills that will help you break free. 

Personal Change is work and when you reached out to me you showed you are up for the task. You have started your journey that leads to loving your life more! 

We will look at the whole of you: mood, food, movement, sleep, social Roles, and life's demands. 

The English word therapy comes from the Latin therapīa from Greek: θεραπεία and literally means "curing" or "healing" The word counselor comes from the Latin conciliator, ("I take counsel"), from cōnsilium ("plan, council, wisdom, advice"). 

She considers it her sacred duty to assist you in discovering the answers that lie within you. However, Carrie also possesses expertise in evidence-based practices and skills that she can teach you, enabling you to love your life more than ever. Some clients may express doubt, saying, "But I have already attempted cognitive behavior therapy, mindfulness, and meditation," and they don't work for me." 

Keep an open mind and an open heart. Sometimes, something we've tried before comes together perfectly. It's important to recognize that one size does not fit all. Together, you and Carrie will find the best plan for you. For those who are hesitant about counseling because they don't want to dwell on their past, I have good news: You don't have to. I'd like to point out that everything that needs to be addressed can be dealt with in the present. If your work sometimes leads you to reflect on the past, that's okay. Generally, Carrie will guide you toward focusing on the present. This isn't unkind; it's where your progress will be most effective. While I work with individuals experiencing a variety of mental health concerns, I specialize in these particular areas.
