About Carrie

Carrie Wilson is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida who emphasizes collaboration and practical progress. With 29 years of experience, she helps people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, addictions, and relationship or intimacy-related difficulties.

Background and approach

She draws on both cognitive behavioral strategies and solution-focused interventions to help clients develop clearer thinking patterns, practical coping skills, and achievable goals. Her style centers on working alongside clients to improve daily functioning and build self-reliance, aiming ultimately for clients to feel they can move forward confidently.

Carrie values the individuality of each person and brings a respectful, human-centered perspective informed by long clinical experience.

Practical matters such as scheduling and fees vary by location and availability, and she asks new clients to begin by completing a short matching questionnaire to find the best fit.

How cognitive and solution-focused methods translate to online care

Online therapy with Carrie blends cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused work into remote sessions that aim to build coping skills and practical change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to emotional distress and practicing alternative responses to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, or depressive moods. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting clear, attainable goals and using clients' existing strengths to generate small, forward-moving steps toward better functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Carrie collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time, combining skill-building and short-term goal work so clients can see tangible progress while shaping a plan that makes sense for their life.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide scheduling flexibility and easier access to care from different locations. These options allow clients to choose the format that best suits their comfort and routine, making it simpler to maintain continuity of care while working on stress, relationships, grief, addiction-related concerns, or other issues.
