About Carrie
Carrie Johnson is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing depression, trauma and abuse, addiction, self-esteem struggles, anxiety, and relationship concerns, including social anxiety and workplace stress.
Carrie uses practical, evidence-informed methods in session. She blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. EMDR is among the approaches she may use for processing disturbing memories and reducing their hold on daily life.
Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps. Conversations look at patterns from family of origin, attachment, and communication styles. She also addresses issues that commonly overlap with anxiety, such as guilt, shame, substance use, and grief.
Carrie works with people navigating life changes - job shifts, immigration stress, caregiving strain, and first responder concerns. She brings experience with LGBT and gender dysphoria topics, and with concerns around intimacy, infidelity, and codependency.
Her style is collaborative and strengths-oriented. People who come to her can expect practical tools as well as space to talk through painful memories or current stressors. Sessions aim to help people build skills for coping, improve relationships, and move toward clearer goals.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective, listening carefully and reflecting back what matters most. It helps people feel understood and clarifies goals for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to shift patterns that increase anxiety or depression. EMDR is used to process distressing memories by pairing focused recall with guided bilateral stimulation; it is often applied when past events continue to affect daily life.Choosing an approach is a collaborative decision. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they can try a method and adjust based on how it feels and what progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Some approaches lend themselves to exercises done during the session, such as CBT worksheets or mindfulness practices, while EMDR sessions may include guided processing that requires focused attention. Check the listed session options to know what formats are offered and plan sessions that fit into everyday life.
