About Ammie
Ammie Carr is a licensed professional counselor who helps people struggling with stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and addiction. She explains things plainly and focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions. Ammie works from Texas and speaks English.
With 14 years of experience she draws on straightforward approaches to guide people through difficult moments. Sessions focus on understanding what currently causes distress and on building small, doable skills to change daily patterns.
Background and approach
She pays attention to mood disorders, grief, trauma, and caregiver strain. Ammie also supports people facing adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, and challenges related to autism spectrum conditions. She addresses family of origin wounds, codependency, and substance use as part of broader life patterns rather than isolated problems.
Her work often includes helping people who feel isolated or overwhelmed by caregiving responsibilities. Her methods include client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thoughts and behaviors, and motivational interviewing to boost readiness for change. Trauma-focused strategies and solution-focused steps are used when they fit a person’s needs.
The goal is to create realistic plans that match a person's values and daily life. People who choose to work with Ammie can expect a calm, direct style. She aims to help clients make steady progress without jargon.
Sessions emphasize clear goals, measurable steps, and skills people can use right away.

Which approaches help most in online sessions
Ammie uses client-centered therapy to listen deeply and follow what matters most to each person. This approach helps when someone needs to feel heard and to shape goals in their own words. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete techniques to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful behaviors. Motivational Interviewing is used alongside CBT when someone needs help increasing motivation to try new steps, especially around addiction or habit change. Finding the right approach is a joint process. Ammie will discuss goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works. Clients and therapist decide together whether to focus on skills training, trauma processing, or short-term solution work. Online formats offer flexibility for fitting therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual cues and mimic in-person sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, tracking progress, or checking in between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while managing work, caregiving, or travel.Questions people ask about Ammie
