About Carly

Carly Andrews is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with seven years of experience. She focuses on common and complex concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, and stress related to caregiving and work.

Carly helps people name and work through painful emotions. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how feelings and attachment needs shape patterns in relationships and behavior. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas and acceptance-based tools to address thinking patterns, avoidance, and painful memories.

Sessions are practical and conversational. Carly listens for the moments that trigger intense feelings and then helps clients respond differently to those moments. She supports people in building better ways to communicate and setting clearer boundaries where needed.

Her practice includes attention to body image concerns, co-occurring mental health issues, ADHD, grief, and burnout from caregiving or helping professions. Carly also works with people facing problems with substance use and with those coping with family of origin wounds and shame.

Clients can expect straightforward discussion of goals and steps to try between sessions. Carly emphasizes working together to find small, doable changes that reduce distress and improve everyday functioning. For people who want therapy that focuses on emotions and secure connection, she frames work around what feels most useful in each session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming strong emotions and the attachment needs behind them. It helps when relationship patterns, intense feelings, or difficulties naming emotions make daily life harder. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and to commit to values-based action, which can help with anxiety, avoidance, and relapse prevention. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonding shapes current connections and responses; this can be useful for people struggling with trust, closeness, or repeated conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She aims to adjust pace, exercises, and focus as needs change, so the approach can shift over time based on what helps most.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to work from a quieter place or to choose audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Talk with Carly during the matching process about which session style would work best with daily life and scheduling.
