About Carol
Carol Tallant is a licensed clinician who helps people manage anger, stress, and intense emotions. She listens for what isn't being said and helps people find clearer ways to express themselves. Many come wanting relief from anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma-related reactions.
Carol guides them toward calmer days and more useful responses. Her approach is practical and person-centered. Sessions focus on what feels most urgent for the client.
She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for emotion regulation and healthier thinking.
Background and approach
Hypnotherapy and existential ideas are offered when they suit a person's goals. Carol has 15 years of clinical experience working with survivors of sexual trauma and childhood abuse. That experience informs how she recognizes trauma responses such as flashbacks, dissociation, startle reactions, and strong emotional reactivity.
She explains what those reactions mean in simple terms and offers step-by-step coping strategies. Work in her sessions often includes learning grounding skills, practicing breathing and relaxation techniques, and testing small behavior changes between meetings. She helps people notice patterns linked to shame, guilt, or attachment wounds and then try new ways of relating to themselves and others.
Therapy is framed around the client's goals. Carol supports people who want to reduce anger outbursts, manage cravings, improve relationships, or move through painful memories. She encourages steady progress and practical steps that fit each person's life.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people feel heard. This approach encourages the person to set goals and move at their own pace, which can help with anger, grief, and questions about identity.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches ways to notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that feed anxiety, depression, or anger. It often uses short exercises and homework that fit well into online sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication. It offers concrete skills for handling intense emotions and urges, which people can practice between video or phone sessions.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more convenient. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice, phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat formats work well for brief check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
