Background and approach

Cognitive behavioral strategies help identify thinking patterns that keep anxiety and depression active. Mindfulness practices are woven in to help people manage moments of panic and intense urges. Her background includes extensive work in substance use and family settings, so she brings practical experience with drug and alcohol addiction, process addictions, and blended family issues.

She also helps clients tackle communication problems and family of origin questions. Carly focuses on supporting young adults and those navigating major life changes. Carly uses motivational interviewing to support readiness for change and narrative therapy to help people rewrite difficult personal stories.

She partners with clients to build plans that fit busy lives and shifting priorities. Sessions emphasize clear steps and small, measurable goals. Based in Ohio, Carly offers sessions in English.

She aims to help people feel understood and gain tools they can use between appointments.

Approaches that fit online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what the client says matters most. The therapist reflects, asks questions, and helps people set goals that feel right to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, panic, phobias, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Carly works collaboratively to decide which methods best match a person’s goals and daily life. She may combine client-centered listening with CBT exercises and mindfulness practices so the plan fits your pace and needs.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick skill reminders, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options help people keep therapy consistent around school, work, or other commitments.
