Approaches to Therapy and Online Care with Dr. Kimberly Carroll
Dr. Carroll frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical approach that links thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and helps clients develop alternative thinking patterns and actionable coping strategies. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, relationship decisions, and other everyday challenges.
She also incorporates Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s experiences and values guide the work. This approach supports self-exploration, increased self-understanding, and improved confidence in personal decision making.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Carroll works with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts treatment over time based on client feedback and progress. Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for busy schedules and make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals. These options allow clients to choose the format that fits their life while maintaining the same therapeutic focus and accountability as in-person work.
