I bring supportive, evidence-based counseling and 30 plus years experience to you; serving individuals and couples with anxiety depression, and relationship concerns.
I have worked in the counseling field for many years and consider myself a lifelong learner. Throughout my career, I have gathered many evidence-based tools and strategies that I love sharing with clients. I see counseling as a collaborative learning experience — we explore together, gain insights, and discover ways to increase your resilience, well-being, and joy.
In our sessions, I focus on your strengths, possibilities, and capacity for change. I genuinely believe each of us has the ability to navigate challenges, manage stress, and build a healthier, more compassionate relationship with ourselves and others.

I work with individuals who are ready to heal from the emotional residue of childhood and adult trauma, including patterns of codependency, love addiction, substance use, compulsive behaviors, or other addictive patterns that often develop as coping strategies. If you’re navigating life after trauma—whether it’s the result of big events or the slow burn of microtraumas—you don’t have to do it alone.
My approach is heart-centered and grounded in both spiritual and emotional practices. I offer a space where you can safely release stored emotions, reconnect with your inner child, and begin the journey toward wholeness—mentally, emotionally, spiritually, sexually, and physically. Many of my clients are familiar with the 12-step path or are looking for a counselor who can weave that wisdom into the therapeutic process. I incorporate:
Whether you’re just starting or returning to this work, I’ll meet you with compassion and curiosity—not judgment.
I work under the supervision of Donna Borders, LPC, as I complete my post-graduate licensure hours. If you’re feeling called to heal, to process grief, or to untangle long-held patterns, I’m here to walk alongside you. You don’t have to fix yourself—you just have to show up.

The sessions were testing, enlightening, emotional, but most of all empowering. Carey was absolutely brilliant in her approach and always managed to ask the right questions.
