About Carrie
Carrie Cooper is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with more than two decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and life changes. She practices with warmth and directness to help people name their concerns and find practical ways forward. Carrie holds a Master of Science in Counseling and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology.
She draws on 23 years of work with adults from varied backgrounds to guide conversations about depression, grief, relationship strain, and parenting stress.
Background and approach
Anger and addiction concerns are included among the issues she addresses. Her approach is rooted in client-centered care and evidence-based methods. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors.
Mindfulness strategies are offered to build present-moment coping during high-stress moments. When past wounds are part of the problem, trauma-focused work helps people make sense of painful experiences and reduce their ongoing impact. Motivational interviewing is used when change feels uncertain, helping people find their own reasons to try something different.
Carrie aims to create practical, step-by-step plans that fit each person’s life. She listens with sensitivity and supports clients as they practice new skills between sessions. Her focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Therapeutic approaches suited for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding each person's goals, and shaping sessions around what matters most to the client. This approach helps when someone needs a compassionate space to talk through anger, grief, or life transitions.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger management, and habit changes because it breaks problems into clear steps and experiments to try between sessions.
Mindfulness therapy offers simple exercises to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without immediately reacting. Mindfulness supports stress reduction, emotional regulation, and calmer responses when frustration or strong emotions arise.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, comfort level, and pace. Treatment plans can change as progress is made or new needs appear.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can fit short check-ins or lower bandwidth, chat works for quick reflections, and messaging helps people keep regular contact and share thoughts between meetings. These options make therapy more flexible for busy schedules and different communication preferences.
