Background and approach
She helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and adopt new ways of coping. Sessions often include goal-setting, short-term tools, and work that can be used between meetings. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address strong emotions and anxiety.
Solution-Focused methods help keep sessions focused on clear, achievable goals. Trauma-Focused strategies are used when past harm affects daily life. Carey works with a broad range of concerns including attachment and communication problems, blended family issues, body image, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, codependency, and divorce or separation.
She also supports people coping with cancer, domestic violence, and disaster-related stress. Therapy is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Carey aims to make changes feel realistic rather than overwhelming, and she encourages practice of skills between sessions.
For people in Texas looking for a direct, experience-based approach, Carey offers steady clinical support.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Carey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy, both of which adapt well to online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which often involves structured exercises and homework that can be reviewed during video or phone sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process past harm and learn coping skills; work may include paced talking, grounding exercises, and stabilization techniques that a therapist guides remotely.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, symptoms, and personal preferences, then try methods that fit the person’s needs. Sessions are collaborative, and adjustments are made based on what helps most over time.
Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let the therapist and client use visual cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, skill reminders, or between-session problem-solving. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue care from different locations.
