About Carleen
Carleen Waller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, social anxiety and phobia, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. She also supports those facing parenting pressures, career decisions, and trauma-related issues.
Her approach centers on practical conversation and clear goals. Sessions focus on what is happening now, how patterns form, and what can be changed next. She draws on Client-Centered methods to listen without judgment and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior.
She uses mindfulness tools to help people notice physical and emotional signs of anxiety. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change. Solution-Focused techniques are used to map small, concrete steps toward a goal.
Carleen commonly works with young adults and people navigating isolation, parenting strain, or intense self-criticism. She addresses intimacy-related concerns, attachment issues, body image, eating concerns, panic attacks, and ADHD-related struggles as they come up in sessions.
Sessions emphasize simple skills to reduce overwhelm. Clients practice new ways of noticing thoughts, testing them, and trying different behaviors between meetings. The aim is clearer choices and steadier day-to-day coping.
Carleen is based in Texas and offers services in English. To begin she asks people to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session so she can learn what matters most to them.
Approaches used online and how they help
Carleen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and test unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that feed anxiety and panic. CBT often includes short exercises and homework to try new reactions to stressful moments.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions focus on the client’s experience and goals while the therapist listens and reflects. Mindfulness Therapy is offered to build awareness of bodily signals and to practice calming attention during anxious moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That choice can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats available before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy life, makes scheduling easier, and lets them use brief check-ins between commitments. Practical benefits include fewer travel demands, easier access from where you are, and the chance to practice skills in everyday settings while keeping appointments consistent.
