About Carri
Carri Wilson is a licensed professional counselor with 24 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with family stress, grief, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD and relationship problems. Her manner is warm and encouraging, and she focuses on practical steps people can take right away.
Carri began her career working on women’s issues, including domestic abuse and self-esteem concerns. She spent nearly two decades in school settings counseling children and advising parents about behavior, learning differences, autism, ADHD, and special education needs.
Background and approach
That work included helping with IEPs and 504 plans and offering straightforward behavioral strategies for home and school. More recently she has supported caregivers balancing eldercare and family life, including people facing dementia and Alzheimer’s challenges.
She has also spent 15 years conducting family evaluations related to custody, adoption, and guardianship, which gave her a broader view of common family stresses and practical options for resolving conflict. Her approach blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies.
Sessions concentrate on thoughts, feelings, and actions, and on concrete steps clients can use to change behavior and reach their goals. Carri aims to form a trusting relationship and to empower people to make better decisions for themselves. Carri practices in Texas and works with English-speaking clients.
She is open to international clients and supports a wide range of concerns from trauma and abuse to bipolar disorder and postpartum depression.

How Carri’s Approaches Work Online
Carri uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people online. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy and building trust so people feel heard and understood; it helps when someone needs a supportive place to talk through feelings. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors to find small, practical changes that reduce anxiety, depression and anger symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Carri will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. She treats this as a collaborative process and adjusts strategies based on what is helping most in real life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer conversations and visual cues, while phone calls work well when bandwidth or hands-free flexibility is needed. Live chat or text messaging can be a short check-in, a way to exchange quick coping tips, or an option for people who prefer not to be on camera. These choices make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules and to continue work between sessions.
