About Carrie

Carrie Leafblad is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

Carrie also addresses related topics such as body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, dissociation, and impulsivity, bringing an attentive, person-focused presence to each case. Her style blends compassion with practical methods, using client-centered techniques alongside evidence-informed tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, and mindfulness practices.

Carrie emphasizes collaboration, meeting clients where they are and adapting interventions to match individual needs and goals. She helps people navigate major life changes, manage overwhelming emotions, and build skills for healthier coping and communication.

Clients can expect a therapist who values clear listening and respectful support while guiding them toward increased resilience and self-understanding. Carrie accepts English-speaking clients in Texas and offers multiple remote session formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and working at the client's pace to explore personal concerns and goals; this approach helps people feel understood and supported as they reflect on change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical skills for issues like anxiety, depression, and impulsivity. EMDR uses structured processing techniques to help reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic memories and related symptoms, and can be integrated into an overall treatment plan for trauma-related concerns.

Choosing the most helpful approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Carrie collaborates with each client to determine which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time, combining approaches when it benefits progress and inviting client feedback about what feels most useful.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or other commitments. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations, maintain continuity during life transitions, and use brief check-ins or messaging when additional support between sessions is helpful.
