About Carrie

Carrie Cohen is a licensed clinical social worker with more than two decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, depression, and relationship concerns. She works in Florida and brings a direct, warm style to sessions. Her approach aims to be practical and solution-focused from the start.

Before independent practice, she worked extensively in the nonprofit sector supporting children, adults, and families facing a wide range of difficulties.

Background and approach

That work included supervising therapists and program directors, which sharpened her eye for effective care. She also spent time on quality improvement and quality assurance to help services run well. Carrie mixes approaches rather than relying on a single method.

She uses client-centered listening alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools when they fit. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing also appear in her work depending on the need. In sessions she combines warmth with clear problem solving.

She pays attention to what’s working and what isn’t, and adjusts the plan if progress stalls. Many people find this practical stance helpful when they need timely results. She has particular experience with trauma and abuse, grief, anger, burnout and compassion fatigue, and issues tied to adoption and foster care.

She also helps with mood disorders such as bipolar, impulsivity, isolation, self-esteem, and career transitions. Carrie aims to create a straightforward, down-to-earth space where clients can talk through current stresses, try new skills, and work toward clearer next steps.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people identify their own goals. It emphasizes understanding the person’s perspective and creating space to talk through difficult moments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change them; it often works well for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving coping and interpersonal skills, which can help with anger, impulsivity, and mood regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Techniques can be adjusted over time if something isn’t helping, so the plan stays focused and useful.

Online therapy makes these approaches more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and teachable moments with visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break or busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, shorter reflections, and ongoing support between sessions. These options let people match the format to their schedule and communication style while working on the same skills and goals used in in-person care.
