More about Carson

  • 16 years' experience
  • Male
  • LICSW, LCSW

I am licensed in Alabama, Florida and California with many years of professional work experience as a therapist. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, mood instability, overcoming addictions, and healing trauma.

Our human condition is one that requires guidance and compassion. Helping my clients elevate out of depression, enduring grief and resolving loss are among the most common services I provide. I work with individuals, couples and families to create a safe space where thoughts and feelings can be explored without fear of judgment.

Starting the therapy process, switching therapists, or returning to therapy after a period of time can be challenging. To be vulnerable is to be courageous and to do this often requires help. My skills are designed to help my clients achieve a sense of strength and to have a more consistent state of peace and joy. I do this with a variety of methods. I tailor my model of therapy based on the clients’ needs and individual goals, allowing authentic growth and sustaining mental health.

Often simply identifying goals can create immediate shifts in how we think, in turn changing the way we feel. Whether the therapy is brief and efficient to push toward immediate mobility, or the therapy is instead a more long-term plan, depends on my clients’ needs and desires. I am available to help you with your future and therapy process.

About online counseling

Affordable.

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.

Jun 2024

really good person

Jan 2024

Carson listens and works in collaboration with me to develop a plan to address issues. I went through 4 therapists, both in person and online trying to find someone that could help. He is insightful and creative in his approach. He pays attention to what I say and I never feel like he is working through some worksheet or checklist. I cannot recommend him enough

Jan 2024

He is professional and supportive and the best ever. 10/10

Dec 2023

I didn’t know how I would like online therapy, and honestly I’m not as frequent as I should be… but, Carson is always checking in. He is always lending great perspectives, advice, and an attentive ear to listen. Happy to know him

Dec 2023

He is a very insightful and caring therapist and I am extremely appreciative of all that he has helped me resolve.

Oct 2023

Carson is an incredible therapist who is able to coach me with daily life obstacles while also helping me work through deeper emotional situations that stem from early on. He listens with both an emotional ear and intellectual ear. His responses are so on target, I’m repeatedly impressed with how he has woven together the fabric of my situation with his knowledge and studies of psychology to formulate a goal oriented discussion.

Oct 2023

Attentive and gives good feedback. Understands what I’m going through.

Aug 2023

Carson does an incredible job as an active listener. Personally, I believe I already have an extremely strong ability to process what I am going through. However, Carson provides value by validating my though process and pointing out where my feelings of being "stuck in life" are actually not so stuck at all.
