How Carrie’s approaches fit online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on emotions and attachment patterns. It helps people identify hard-to-name feelings and the interaction patterns that keep problems repeating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and gives concrete techniques for managing symptoms.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Carrie will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and she will adapt methods in collaboration with the client. That way the approach reflects both the person’s needs and practical priorities.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, childcare, or travel. They can make short check-ins simpler, reduce time spent commuting, and let clients practice new skills between meetings in real life. Licensed professionals can use the methods above in virtual settings to help track progress and try real-world experiments that fit everyday schedules.
