About Carrie
Carrie Collier is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and the many ways life can feel overwhelming. She supports people dealing with depression, grief, addictions, relationship struggles, parenting strain, and identity or self-esteem concerns. Her style is calm and straightforward and she focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions.
Carrie works in a collaborative, client-centered way. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and partners with them to set goals.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skill practice, learning new ways to respond to triggers, and trying small behavior changes that add up over time. Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), attachment-based ideas, and client-centered methods. That mix helps people reframe thoughts, build emotion regulation skills, and strengthen important relationships.
With eight years of professional experience, Carrie aims to keep language simple and the plan clear. She focuses on what will help most right now and checks in often to adjust the approach. People who prefer a direct but empathetic guide may find her style approachable.
Sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Carrie conducts sessions in English and practices in Michigan, and she does not take international clients.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and when life changes feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting thought patterns that fuel distress and trying concrete behavior changes to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. That approach works well for anxiety, anger, and many mood concerns.Carrie treats finding the right approach as a shared process. She listens to what matters most, discusses options, and adapts techniques based on individual goals and preferences. Clients help set the pace so methods fit with their daily life and needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy schedule. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and skill coaching. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, quick skill reminders, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options let people practice skills consistently and get support without long travel times, helping therapy stay practical and reachable.
