How Carolshene works
She also uses mindfulness practices and EMDR when trauma is part of the picture. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Powell helps people build coping skills, manage strong emotions, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others.
She addresses issues like low self-esteem, social anxiety, loneliness, guilt, shame, and struggles with life purpose. Powell’s background includes long experience in trauma-informed care and crisis intervention. Over two decades she has supported people through substance-related concerns and developed skills in both individual and group settings.
That work shaped a practical approach to healing and recovery. People who work with Powell can expect a collaborative process. Together they set clear goals, track progress, and adjust strategies as needed.
She holds a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential, LCMHC, and practices in Utah. Therapy is offered in English and delivered through a mix of video, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How therapeutic approaches work in online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and priorities. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what she hears, and helps people identify what they most want to change or preserve in their lives. This approach is useful for anyone needing a supportive, nonjudgmental space to sort things out.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It breaks problems into manageable parts and uses practical exercises between sessions, which translates well to video or text formats. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and social worries.
EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that can help reduce the intensity of traumatic memories. In online sessions it involves guided procedures and tracking responses while the person stays in contact with the therapist. It is chosen when past events continue to cause strong reactions in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. Plans are adjusted as progress is made and new priorities emerge.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited; live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy day or to connect from different locations.
