About Carrie
Carrie Harris is a licensed clinical social worker, licensed in Alabama as an LICSW and in Maine as an LCSW, with 13 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. The first section here gives a quick sense of what she focuses on and how she meets people in practical terms.
Carrie uses straightforward conversation to identify current problems and workable next steps. She listens for what feels most urgent, then suggests small changes the person can try between sessions. Sessions tend to focus on coping skills, managing panic or anxiety, and making decisions during periods of change.
Her additional experience includes adoption and foster care issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiving strain, cancer-related concerns, hospice and end-of-life support, and struggles with guilt or forgiveness. She also has work with panic attacks and post-traumatic stress. That variety gives her practical exposure to many kinds of life stressors.
Carrie adapts the pace of work to each person. Sometimes that means short-term problem solving for a discrete issue. Other times it means longer conversations about grief or trauma recovery. She explains steps plainly and checks in about what is or is not helping.
People who choose a licensed clinical social worker often want help linking mental health work to daily life. Carrie draws on years of practice to keep sessions focused on what matters now and on small, concrete changes a person can try between meetings.
BHow sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Carrie works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and steps. One common approach involves practical coping skills for anxiety and panic - teaching breathing and grounding exercises, short behavioral changes, and ways to spot early warning signs. These tools are used to reduce immediate distress and improve day-to-day functioning.A second approach addresses trauma and grief by organizing memories and emotions into manageable pieces. This involves paced conversations, learning ways to tolerate difficult feelings, and planning small tests of change between meetings. The aim is to help a person regain steady routines and handle triggers with less overwhelm.
Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to match methods to current goals, symptoms, and preferences. Carrie will adjust the plan over time based on what is working and what needs to change.
Session format details should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list explicit online formats. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, or treatment schedules. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to keep appointments during busy weeks. Ask about available session types when you schedule so the timing and style fit everyday life.
