3 Quick Questions for Carrie
1. What is your approach to counseling?
I believe every bad habit is really the result of an unmet need—one that the client isn’t sure how to meet in a healthy way. I work with clients to uncover what they want to change, the behavior patterns that hold them back, and the root causes behind them. Together, we focus on healing and building lasting, positive change.
2. Why do you enjoy working with young adults?
I love working with young adults because they are just beginning their journey in life. They have so much time and potential to start making healthier decisions to live a happier and more fulfilled life.
3. Why do young adults enjoy working with you?
I see, hear, and value every client for who they are. My clients feel like I really see the best in them and help them live up to their potential in a supportive, inspiring way.

A Quote From Carrie
“When a behavior—yours or someone else’s—feels challenging, it can be easy to see it as the problem. But often, it’s really a signal. One pointing to emotions, needs, or experiences that the struggling person may not know how to express. My role is to gently uncover what’s beneath the behavior, helping you feel understood and supported as you move toward healing and a healthier future.”
