How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, anger reactions, panic, and patterns that keep causing trouble. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's priorities and personal experience, giving space to decide what matters and set goals. Mindfulness Therapy supports noticing urges and bodily signals so choices become less automatic and reactivity can decrease.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Carly will work with each person to identify which methods match their goals and preferences. That may mean combining techniques from CBT, motivational interviewing, and narrative work to address anger, addiction, or relationship concerns.
