About Precious

Precious Wilkerson-Carr is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 19 years of experience as a psychotherapist and supervisor. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and life transitions. Sessions focus on practical skills and clear steps to manage daily stressors.

She uses straightforward, cognitive-behavioral approaches while drawing on other methods when useful. That means sessions often include tracking thoughts and behaviors, testing new ways of responding, and building coping skills for hard moments. She also uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and Motivational Interviewing when those approaches fit a person's needs.

Precious aims to listen, teach, and support clients as they try new strategies. She works with people on issues such as addiction concerns, grief, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Additional focuses include adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, blended family stress, caregiver strain, and communication problems.

Her style is direct and energetic while remaining respectful. She helps people form concrete plans and practices to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Clients can expect practical tools, homework between sessions, and clear discussion of goals.

She practices in Louisiana and conducts sessions in English. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform's online options.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic methods work in online sessions

Precious often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral changes. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with everyday stress by focusing on practical problem solving and skill practice.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and commit to meaningful actions even when feelings are difficult. ACT can be helpful for people dealing with persistent worry, low mood, or difficulty making changes. When trauma memories are central, she may draw on EMDR techniques to process distressing material in a structured way.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and recommend methods that seem likely to help. Clients and the therapist check in regularly and adjust the plan based on progress and comfort.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. Discuss format preferences during the matching questionnaire so practical arrangements suit your life.
