About Precious
Precious Wilkerson-Carr is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana. She brings 19 years of experience as a psychotherapist and supervisor. Her work centers on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life changes.
She meets people where they are and focuses on clear, usable strategies. Sessions emphasize building coping skills, improving communication, and addressing relationship and parenting concerns. She also helps people navigate grief, addiction, anger, low self-esteem, and issues related to identity and the LGBT community.
How Precious works
Her background includes long experience supervising other clinicians and working across a broad range of concerns. She primarily draws on cognitive behavioral tools while weaving in other approaches when they help reach a client's goals. The emphasis is on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space that supports steady progress.
In a session, she listens, offers encouragement, and teaches skills people can use between meetings. She works collaboratively to design a plan that fits each person’s life and needs. The aim is to strengthen coping, reduce distress, and improve day-to-day functioning.
People who connect well with her often want practical steps and clear guidance while also being heard. She frames therapy as a partnership and focuses on concrete changes that make life easier to manage.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and what online sessions offer
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take steps toward a meaningful life even when difficult feelings are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions because it focuses on action aligned with what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for depression, anxiety, and coping with everyday challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that can help with intense emotions and relationship conflicts.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adapt methods based on their goals, preferences, and needs. Sessions may combine elements of ACT, CBT, and DBT as appropriate to create a plan that fits the individual's life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when helpful. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing skill practice between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
