About me

Hi, I am so glad you have decided to take a step in healing from your past.

I specialize in working with people who grew up in families where there was some type of instability or turmoil. This could have been from addiction, mental health, abuse, neglect, anger, poverty, foster care placement, religious trauma or anything that caused some form of trauma. Oftentimes times those who grew up in this type of situation feel responsible for it or that somehow they should have fixed it and carry these feelings of guilt into adulthood.

You may be struggling with some form of addiction, self-sabotage, self-harm, shame/guilt, co-dependency, the trauma of past abuse, or you may currently be in an abusive situation. Do you find yourself asking "Why does this keep happening to me"? You know something has to change, but you just don’t know how to make it happen. If you are ready for that change I am here to help guide you on a healing path.

I believe in the human potential to grow and change. We are amazing creatures and can overcome severe adversity. Sometimes what we need is someone to truly see us, to understand our pain and to be able to stand in it with us until we can move through it. I can stand with you and help you move through your pain. You are not too much and your emotions are not too much.

Our first session is chance for you to express anything that is concerning you. It is the start of our roadmap to working together.

I like to use this analogy: Therapy is like using a GPS when driving. You are in the driver's seat so to speak and I am like the GPS. I will offer suggestions on which route appears the best to get you to your destination but you are free to choose another route, make a detour, or change the final destination. I just ask that you communicate this to me so we are both working on the same plan.

In addition to working with those who have experienced childhood trauma I also specialize in working with adults involved in non-traditional relationships such as kink/BDSM, polyamory, & open relationships.

I have worked with many clients dealing with issues of sexual or gender identity or those belonging to the LGBTQ+ population that want an open minded nonconservative therapist.

Carrie has great practical tools for people who suffer from clinical anxiety. She listens and provides tools appropriate for the situation or thought process to alleviate the anxiety. In the weeks I’ve worked with her my anxiety levels have gone down, thanks to the tools and exercises she has provided, and those exercises have helped change my thought processes in ways that will undoubtedly offer relief for anxiety in the long term. Your mind can trap you into a cage of worry, Carrie can help you find the keys to help you get out.
