Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support with Carleen Waller



Carleen uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where clients guide the pace and focus of sessions while she offers support and reflection - this approach is helpful for building self-understanding, addressing identity concerns, and improving relationships. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, panic, and stress, offering practical strategies to manage symptoms and daily functioning. Mindfulness therapy is also part of her work, teaching present-moment awareness and grounding techniques that can reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation across a variety of concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Carleen works with each person to evaluate what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the client’s life circumstances.

Online sessions provide flexibility in how people connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow therapy to fit into busy schedules, accommodate mobility or geographic constraints within the therapist’s service area, and support continuity of care during life transitions. These options make it easier to maintain momentum between appointments and to access licensed professionals from familiar settings.
