About Carrie
Carrie Follmar is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with six years of clinical experience. She centers her work on each person’s own story and strengths. She aims to support people who want clearer direction and less overwhelm in daily life.

Background and approach
Sessions focus on what is useful now and on building skills that fit each person’s life. Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She listens for what matters most and helps clients identify small changes that can make daily life easier.
Psycho-education is offered when it helps someone understand patterns and try new strategies. Clients may bring concerns about parenting, relationship stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, career transitions, or caregiver strain. Carrie has experience supporting people through blended family issues and family-of-origin questions, among other life challenges.
She aims to make conversations feel focused and practical. Carrie works in English and practices in Texas as an LPC. She combines narrative and client-centered ideas with solution-focused techniques to help people set goals and test simple strategies.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience without judgment. The therapist follows the client’s lead and helps them make sense of their feelings and choices, which can be useful for concerns like self-esteem, life transitions, and parenting stress.Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their lives. Sessions help separate problems from the person and open space to try new meanings and actions, which can be helpful for family-of-origin issues, emptiness, or feeling stuck.
Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps that move someone toward their goals. It’s action-oriented and well suited to managing daily routines, ADHD-related planning challenges, and workplace or caregiver stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Carrie collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, adapting the work as needs change. This helps ensure sessions stay relevant and manageable.
Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging offer flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or communicate in writing when that fits a busy schedule. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, and other commitments.
