More about Carrie
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider designation, licensed to practice in Tennessee. My current practice focuses on treating trauma and anxiety, and I work with a variety of ages, backgrounds, etc. My therapy style operates from a person-centered approach, and while I do like to utilize techniques from various modalities, I enjoy EMDR, ACT, and mindfulness based techniques the most. I am a big believer in learning to calm the nervous system and panic response, and find that I am successful in helping clients develop this ability. I have 10 years experience in working in mental health, and around 8 years experience in working with clients who have experienced trauma. I also enjoy working with clients who wish to further their personal journey of growth toward living a better life. I look forward to working with you!
Please note I can ONLY see clients in the state of TN (meaning the client must also be in the state of TN while we are in communication). I currently only have late evening appointments available.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Carrie and I really connected well last year and I had to end our session because I was at a good place in my life and I felt good about my relationships. I am here again because life happens and I am glad to have her help along this journey.
Carrie is great! Wouldn't trade her for anything
Carrie is wonderful!
Carrie is amazing and very helpful
I have only worked with Carrie for a short period of time, but I’m already so happy with this match. She is a great counselor for an empath like me. She has made time for me and helped me feel seen and heard in a time when I needed it the most. She has already helped me dig deep and identify some core things to work on (boundaries, for example) and I have faith that she can help me work on them. I’ll have more to say once I work with her longer, but I can already say that I 100% recommend her!
