About Precious

Precious Wilkerson-Carr is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Louisiana with 19 years of experience as a psychotherapist and supervisor. She draws on extensive clinical practice to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Her background includes work on a broad range of concerns such as addictions, grief, self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, and issues related to adoption, attachment, caregiving, and blended families. She practices primarily from a cognitive behavioral framework while also using other evidence-informed methods to meet each person’s needs.

Sessions are conducted in a warm, nonjudgmental, and energetic manner, with an emphasis on listening, encouragement, and practical skills. The focus is on developing an individualized plan that promotes coping, communication, and emotional well-being.

Prospective clients can expect a collaborative approach aimed at helping them build strategies for change and greater resilience. Precious holds Louisiana license LA LCSW 9538 and offers services in English for clients located in Louisiana.

She provides multiple remote session formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care



Precious frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to improve mood and daily functioning; this approach is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people clarify values and build psychological flexibility by learning acceptance and mindful action toward meaningful goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills may be incorporated to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when needed.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to explore goals, preferences, and the nature of presenting concerns, then adapt methods and strategies to fit what feels most useful and practical for the individual.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it possible to access therapy from home or on the go, support consistent engagement during life transitions, and allow clients and licensed professionals to use the approaches above in ways that match daily routines and needs.
