About Carrie
Carrie Johnson is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who uses a client-centered approach to guide people through pain and change. She blends practical strategies with empathy to address issues like depression, anxiety, and addiction. Carrie keeps language simple and meetings focused on real-life problems parents notice at home.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is part of her toolkit for processing traumatic memories.
How Carrie works
Mindfulness techniques are used to lower stress and improve moment-to-moment coping. Carrie has 14 years of experience working with concerns that range from self-esteem and grief to intimacy-related issues and career stress. She also helps people facing codependency, caregiver strain, and challenges tied to immigration or first responder work.
Her background supports practical goal-setting and steady progress. Sessions focus on clear steps you can use between meetings. That might mean skill practice, communication exercises, or short behavioral experiments to try at work or home.
The therapist likes to keep things collaborative and adjusts plans as needs change. People who reach out can expect straightforward conversation about what’s most pressing. Carrie aims to help clients build resilience, repair strained relationships, and find clearer direction in work and life.
The tone is warm and goal-oriented, with attention to each person’s circumstances.

Online support options
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person says matters most. Online, this looks like focused conversation that follows the client’s priorities and adjusts pace to match needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to change thinking and behavior. In remote sessions CBT often includes worksheets, between-session experiments, and step-by-step plans that people can try between meetings.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to pick or combine methods based on your goals, symptoms, and what feels comfortable. That means trying a method for a few sessions and adjusting it if something else would fit better.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face to face from another location. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging make shorter check-ins and ongoing coaching possible between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different needs.
