I work primarily with patients facing chronic or terminal medical conditions and their caregivers, providing support through grief, loss, and the emotional toll of illness. I also support parents and caregivers in foster care and adoptive settings, especially those caring for children with trauma, loss, or neurodivergence.

I looked at all my choices that were presented to me and I had a special feeling or connection about Carrie, so I chose her, and I was right. She makes me feel I can trust her. I feel she listens and gives me very sincere feedback. She shows concern about me and my situation.

My approach to psychotherapy is both psychosomatic and language-based. While I am trained in and actively practice several body-oriented modalities, I place great importance on the use of language.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Your goals are of utmost importance, and understanding barriers that could be in the way is often the path to success. Issues such as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, excessive worry, substance misuse, work-related stressors, and life transitions of every kind are the focus areas of my practice.

My therapist has lived experience, so she knows what she's talking about. She seems curious and approaches our discussion with kindness and has given me actual guidance, with suggestions of how I can work on my issues on my own between sessions too. Her method is already proving to be helpful and I feel like I click with her. I don't feel embarrassed about sharing things and I am beginning to feel lighter. I am so grateful
