About Ohan

Ohan Carter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York who brings a focused, client-centered approach to counseling.

Background and approach

She draws on three years of professional experience to help people address parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, coping with life changes, LGBT issues, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and grief.

Her practice also attends to coaching needs and compassion fatigue as well as areas such as adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, communication problems, forgiveness, life purpose, multicultural concerns, self-love, and workplace issues. Ohan uses practical, evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral therapy alongside client-centered and solution-focused techniques and motivational interviewing.

She aims to help clients explore thoughts and beliefs that influence feelings and behaviors while supporting growth through collaborative problem solving and motivational support. Sessions emphasize strengthening inner resources, clarifying goals, and building skills for everyday challenges.

Her style is warm and supportive, offering a space for people to increase self-awareness, process difficult experiences, and take actionable steps toward change. Ohan works with adults in English and practices from New York, providing several online session formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

How Ohan’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Ohan commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop practical coping skills for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, and anger. She also draws on client-centered therapy, offering an empathic, nonjudgmental environment where clients set the pace and focus of sessions, which can be especially helpful when exploring personal values, life purpose, or family concerns.

Choosing which approach or combination will be most helpful is part of the collaborative work. She will partner with each person to assess goals, preferences, and the presenting concerns, then adjust methods over time so the plan aligns with what the client finds most useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility for different routines and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from home or other convenient locations while working toward concrete steps and personal growth.
