Great to meet you!

My name is Carissa Carlson and I am Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I'm a compassionate, client-centered therapist dedicated to creating a supportive space for growth and healing. I tailor my approach to your specific needs to help you reach your goals. My client focus includes adults and young adults experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, life transitions, work-life balance, and interpersonal difficulties.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is to take a collaborative, client-centered approach to create a safe and supportive space for growth. It is important to listen to my clients to understand their needs and goals for therapy to help their process of healing and growth. My work is guided by warmth, authenticity, and a deep commitment to helping individuals.

What you can expect from me

I believe therapy should be a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore their emotions and goals, and I guide my sessions with warmth and authenticity to help individuals navigate life’s challenges.
