About me

I am a licensed therapist with more than 13 years' experience in helping people overcome life challenges. I am trained in Dialectical behavior therapy which has been shown to be effective for treating borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, anxiety, trauma, and codependency. I am also trained in CBT for anxiety/depression and Internal Family Systems therapy for trauma. I specialize in women's issues, depression, anxiety, adult ADHD, and trauma/PTSD for adults. I am trained in neurodivergent practices such as DBT for neurodivergent individuals. I understand your brain works differently so some traditional concepts will not be effective. I provide a non-judgmental relaxed environment that encompasses opportunity for personal growth. You are in control of your therapy experience and can go at your own pace. Any movement forward, no matter how small counts toward your bigger picture. I'm here to help you understand that you have basic human needs to and have a right to express those needs. It is important to me that my clients feel validated and safe when dealing with their problems. It is my ultimate goal to provide my clients with tools needed to cope with problems, grow spiritually, and gain confidence in their abilities.
Licensed in Florida and South Carolina, a certified telehealth provider, and available to work with you on:
1. Women's issues

NOTE: I work with adults only AGE 20- 40. Check out my calendar and feel free to schedule with me. Just know that first appointment has to be by video to conduct a proper assessment.
A little more about me, I specifically enjoy working with young women. I have years of experience helping young women find their authentic self, boost self-esteem, and find confidence in their own journey.
Note: It is my preference not to see other counselors therapeutically. Thank you!
Note: There are limitations to what I can help with on this platform. I do not provide letters, forms, etc. I cannot provide a diagnosis.

Written on Jul 19, 2022 after therapy with Carey for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and coping with life changes

I cannot express the ways this woman has changed my life. When we started, I had a LOT of negativity, shame, insecurities, and self hatred going on. Through her understanding and guidance, I now have two thriving relationships and friends! I actually have friends now and a good relationship with my mother! Carey is very smart at finding different perspectives to look at situations and will gently guide you the right way, even if you're impulsive with bad choices like I was! I could never thank her enough. My life is changed forever because of this woman!!!! Thank you!!!!

Carey has been amazing for me the past year and a half. Speaking to her has helped me get through some extremely difficult parts of my life and for that I will be forever grateful! She has great ideas on ADHD, depression and anxiety maintenance. Also, gives great relationship, career and family advice.
