About Carol
Carol Harris is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with anger, depression, anxiety, stress, and life changes. She also supports people facing addiction, grief, parenting strains, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Carol prefers direct, practical conversations. She listens first and then helps people notice patterns that maintain distress. Sessions often include simple tools to manage strong emotions and steps to try between meetings.
Background and approach
The goal is clearer thinking and steadier behavior, not technical jargon. Her background includes long work with diverse adults and people managing medical or aging concerns. That experience shapes how she responds to loss, chronic illness, and role changes.
Over time she has helped clients rebuild routines and regain a sense of control. Carol uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws from cognitive behavioral methods to shift unhelpful thoughts and from mindfulness to increase moment-to-moment awareness.
Attachment ideas guide work on relationships and trust. Clients can expect a calm, patient presence and practical steps to try between sessions. Conversations move at a steady pace and focus on skills that can be used right away.
Carol welcomes people who want clear, down-to-earth support while handling life’s difficult moments.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that match what matters, which can help with anger, depression, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions teach concrete techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and to try new behaviors that reduce anxiety, stress, or anger in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will partner with each person to choose which ideas to test based on goals and what feels most useful. That collaborative process may mix techniques and adjust over time.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and role play. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, between-session coaching, or when a shorter format fits into a busy day.
These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or medical needs.
