About Precious

Precious Wilkerson-Carr is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, relationship and parenting concerns, and other life changes. Her background includes psychotherapy and supervision across a range of care settings.

She often begins by listening and learning what each person needs. Sessions focus on concrete skills and steps that can reduce overwhelm. She uses clear explanations and practical strategies rather than jargon. Clients can expect straightforward discussion about goals and next steps.

Precious commonly uses cognitive behavioral approaches and draws on other methods as needed. That can look like identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, trying new behaviors between sessions, or practicing emotional regulation skills. She also uses trauma-focused techniques when past hurt shows up in day-to-day life.

When addictions, grief, or family stress are part of the picture, she helps people break problems into manageable tasks. That may include short-term plans for coping, communication practice, or setting boundaries. She encourages small, measurable changes that people can build on.

Her style is direct and energetic while remaining respectful. She works with each person to decide which methods fit best. To begin, people are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

Approaches used in online sessions

Precious commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thinking and behavior patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood. CBT focuses on clear exercises and everyday tasks that build different habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she offers, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on values-based action.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit best. That plan can be adjusted over time based on what is helpful.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday or a busy week, cut commuting time, and allow a shorter check-in when that suits someone. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver the same therapeutic tools such as CBT exercises, ACT practices, and trauma-focused techniques adapted for remote work.
