About Ohan

Ohan Carter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York. She brings a clear, practical approach to conversations about parenting and everyday stresses. Her style is warm and collaborative, aimed at helping people find usable steps forward.

She focuses on issues parents often face, such as anger, self-esteem, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care concerns, and communication problems. Ohan also helps people navigating grief, life changes, workplace challenges, and relationship stress.

Background and approach

She blends coaching elements with therapeutic work to support goals and problem solving. In sessions she uses straightforward methods that help people identify thoughts and habits that get in the way. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thought patterns and Client-Centered techniques to center each person’s experience.

Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy guide short-term planning and practical change. Ohan aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where parents and individuals can name pressures and try different approaches. She talks through realistic next steps and helps clients practice skills between meetings.

This makes the work feel useful, not just theoretical. Her practice offers multiple ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are scheduled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Ohan works in English and practices from New York as an LCSW.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches shape online parenting support

Ohan uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts that lead to unhelpful reactions. This approach is helpful for managing anger, building self-esteem, and improving daily parenting decisions.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following each person's priorities. That gives space to explore what matters most and to build plans that fit the client's life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ohan will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on goals, needs, and preferences. That means adjusting techniques over time and checking what feels helpful.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls let people have more face-to-face time while phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is a concern. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick coaching moments, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options aim to give flexibility while keeping the therapeutic focus on real-life parenting challenges and practical next steps.
