About Carlithea
Carlithea Farrington is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on helping people cope with stress, anger, anxiety, and relationship strain. She brings a calm, practical style to sessions and aims to make conversations straightforward and useful. She works from North Carolina and conducts sessions in English.
With 11 years of clinical experience, she draws on several well-known therapeutic methods to tailor care to each person. Carlithea listens first, then helps people identify what is getting in the way of daily functioning.
Background and approach
She emphasizes skills that can be practiced between sessions so progress continues outside the appointment time. Her background spans schools, government programs, psychiatric settings, and independent practice. That range informs how she helps with issues like trauma, intimate-partner violence, grief, addiction, mood disorders, and parenting stress.
She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care matters, blended family dynamics, caregiver burden, and workplace difficulties. In session she focuses on respectful listening and building a working plan together. People often work on communication, managing strong emotions including anger, improving self-esteem, and handling life changes like divorce or financial strain.
The work aims to produce clearer choices and steadier day-to-day coping. To begin, a straightforward matching questionnaire and scheduling step connects someone to sessions. Carlithea uses a subscription session model that can be canceled at any time, and she offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Approaches that guide online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and take action that matches their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, anger, and decisions about life priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with concrete experiments and behavior changes, which can reduce anxiety, mood problems, and relationship strain.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will listen to what matters most, discuss options, and try methods that fit the person's goals and preferences. Over a few sessions she will check what helps and adjust the plan based on progress and feedback.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video lets the therapist observe nonverbal cues and do longer check-ins. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are useful for quick check-ins, skills practice, and brief coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and continue working on goals where people spend most of their time.
