About Carrie

Carrie Cooper is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 23 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, grief, and family of origin issues.

Her training includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Science in Counseling. She has worked with a wide range of adults and helps people address common life problems in straightforward terms. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps that clients can try between meetings.

Carrie uses client-centered techniques to help people clarify what matters most to them. She uses cognitive behavioral strategies to spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.

She also draws on motivational interviewing when change feels difficult. Trauma-focused approaches are used when early life events affect current patterns. The work centers on what a person wants to change and how to get there one step at a time.

Clients can expect direct conversation about patterns that developed in the family they grew up in and how those patterns show up now. Carrie explains options plainly and helps people choose practical tools. The focus is problem solving, clearer boundaries, and everyday coping skills.

Her practice is based in Utah and she works in English. People interested in starting complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's booking flow.

How her main approaches work for online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person's own priorities. The therapist follows the client's lead, clarifies goals, and helps people choose what to work on next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses concrete exercises and experiments to test new ways of thinking and behaving that can reduce anxiety or depressive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carrie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That may mean mixing client-centered conversation with CBT exercises or adding mindfulness practices for stress and reactivity.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Those practical benefits help people keep momentum and apply skills in day-to-day life.
