About Me

With over 17 years of extensive experience, I am board certified, (nationally and internationally), licensed professional counselor in Texas, Illinois, and The Bahamas, Licence Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) Kentucky; Licence Independent Mental Health Practioner (Nebraska); Licence Clinical Professional (Montana LIC# BBH-LCPC-LIC-31419); Board Certified-TeleMental Health Provider (BC-TMH); and License Associate sex offender provider (LASOP). I have three master’s degrees (Professional Counseling, Clinical Psychology, and Christian Counseling,). I am a Doctoral Candidate (APA Accredited) in Clinical, Health, forensic, and Neuropsychology, and have been inducted into the Psi Chi international honor society in psychology, and the Pi Lambda Theta honor society in education.

I have worked successfully with individuals, couples, groups, and families with a broad range of concerns including parenting problems, addiction, career challenges, depression, divorce, domestic abuse, and eating disorders. I have also worked with persons coping with illness, grief, loss, family conflict, pre-marital concerns, anxiety, infidelity, OCD, men’s issues, sexual abuse, spirituality, suicidal ideation, PTSD, weight loss, women’s issues, relationships issues, and panic attacks.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I show empathy and believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach is integrative, so it combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, motivational, rational emotive counseling, smart recovery, and positive psychology. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs and will do my best to assist you in achieving the desired results.
It is commendable and takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to encourage, support and empower you.

Written by W.H. on Aug 30, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 10 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and anger

Carnell has helped me get a handle on my depression and anxiety. I am growing so much, and becoming stronger. Recovering from trauma is hard, and she is a great guide!

Written by T.A. on Aug 29, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 3 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating, and anger

Carnell Colebrook-Claude served as my counselor. I was skeptical of the quality and efficacy of using an online therapist. Working with her was the best counseling experience I have ever experienced. She was knowledgeable about current conditions and treatments. She listened carefully to my complex history and provided exercises that proved to help tremendously. I would thoroughly reccomend her and this website to anyone.

Written by M.A. on May 02, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family, self esteem, and career

Carnell is non-judgmental and does not jump to conclusions. She takes the time to understand what the issue is and offers tentative suggestions that help me work towards articulating the problem at deeper levels.

Written by R.A. on Mar 23, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 6 months on issues concerning depression, self esteem, and career

Carnell has changed me into a better person. I owe her so much gratitude. When I first started therapy I was in a dark place. What counselor Carnell and the BetterHelp format helped me do, is seek therapy though my phone and text, in a more open and convenient way.

Written by J.E. on Mar 15, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, family, sleeping, self esteem, and anger

Absolutely love her.
I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

Written by Z.A. on Jan 30, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 2 weeks on issues concerning addictions, relationship, trauma and abuse, grief, and intimacy-related

Carnell recognized a lot of things I’m dealing with and helped me so much in one session. Looking forward to many more.

Written by E.M. on Jan 20, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family, trauma and abuse, eating, self esteem, and career

Carnell has been a huge answer to prayers. She is able to support me with integrating faith into the process. Also, I love homework and she has been able to give me some great worksheets to help me work through some of the challenges in my healing journey. It has been so helpful to share as things come to mind within the app and know that she will reply and work with me. And if it has been a little bit, she will check in. I am so thankful for that she does check in because I can get lost in what I’m going through and forget to reach out sometimes. I need to remember I can reach out right away, but I have gotten used to having to “save it” for the next appointment. Thankfully, this format doesn’t have to be like that! I don’t have to pause the hard stuff or try to remember everything I wanted to bring up. More than anything, Carnell has given me the support and encouragement I needed right now with tools to move forward on my healing journey. I’m so thankful for her!

Written by C.Y. on Jan 19, 2018 after counseling with Carnell for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, relationship, family, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related, eating, and self esteem

I have experienced some things that I refused to talk about. I didn't realize until Carnell pointed out that I had not fully healed and was trapped in a cyclical pattern that was undermining not only my emotional health but my physical well being. I felt that she was patient and she gently guided me to the realization. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She has great knowledge of her field.

I have only been working with Carnell for a relatively short time, but even in a couple weeks, just her ability to validate what I am feeling and help me think of things in new ways has helped me approach my day-to-day grind with less anxiety and more clarity.
