About Carrie

Carrie Johnson is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on trauma-informed care and emotion-focused work. She uses EMDR as one of her approaches alongside practical talk therapy to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, depression, or addiction. Carrie works from Texas and brings 14 years of clinical experience to meetings with clients.

Carrie helps people untangle painful memories and intense reactions. She blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness.

Background and approach

Sessions are practical and paced to match each persons needs, with space to process difficult feelings and practice new skills. Her work covers concerns like anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and struggles with substance use. She also supports people facing attachment wounds, codependency, caregiver stress, gender dysphoria, immigration challenges, and fallout from trauma or disaster.

The focus is on clear steps that reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Carrie values cultural sensitivity and aims to make therapy welcoming for people of different backgrounds and identities. Conversations are collaborative: she listens first, then offers strategies that fit the clients life and values.

Practical exercises and homework are used when they help move progress forward. Clients can expect direct communication about goals, steady tracking of progress, and adjustments when something isnt working. Carrie combines compassion with structure to help people regain stability, build healthier relationships, and move toward meaningful change.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the persons experience. The therapist follows the clients pace, reflects concerns, and helps people name emotions so they can make sense of them. This approach is useful for building trust and finding personal goals.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online sessions often include short exercises, worksheets, and between-session practice to address anxiety, depression, and stress. These tools work well over video or messaging because they can be reviewed together and practiced in daily life.

EMDR is used to help people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. In an online setting, EMDR methods are adapted to suit remote work while focusing on safe pacing and stabilization before memory processing.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and what feels manageable, then try methods that fit the clients needs. That collaborative decision-making helps shape an individualized plan.

Online formats offer practical benefits: video calls allow face-to-face connection, phone sessions can be a lighter option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging supports shorter check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make sessions easier to fit around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping momentum between visits.
