About Precious
Precious Wilkerson-Carr is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana. She brings 19 years of experience as a psychotherapist and supervisor and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and the challenges of parenting. Her approach is practical and direct, aimed at helping people find clearer ways to cope and move forward.
She uses cognitive behavioral methods as a main framework and also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical skills, and trauma-focused tools when they fit the situation.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skill building, real-world practice, and straightforward conversations about what changes feel possible. She talks through problems, helps set small goals, and teaches techniques people can use between sessions. People looking for help with addiction, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, or life transitions can expect a respectful, energetic style.
She creates a nonjudgmental space and offers encouragement while focusing on practical steps. Her work also covers complex trauma, attachment concerns, and issues related to adoption and foster care. Precious tailors plans to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
She explains options and collaborates on what to try next. Many clients leave sessions with simple tools and a clear next step. Sessions are offered by phone, video, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules.
New clients start by completing a short questionnaire and scheduling a first session according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. It is useful for managing anxiety, stress, and big life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behavior through practical exercises and homework to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs. Together you will decide which techniques to keep, adjust, or stop so the plan fits your daily life and what you want to change.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send updates, ask quick questions, and work through steps between appointments. These options help therapy fit around work, family, and busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
