I'm Carissa, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who is passionate about helping people become their most authentic selves! As a person-centered therapist, I firmly believe that everyone has the capacity to reach their fullest potential and live their best life with the right support and environment. My aim is to support you in finding your inner strength and healing to make this possible in your own life.
Authenticity is a journey that I've personally traveled as both a therapist and an individual. With a strong foundation in our true selves, we are able to walk boldly into the life we desire, rather than simply reacting to the world around us.
As an experienced therapist with my Masters in Counselors Education from the University of Arkansas, I have learned a lot about what it means to be a person. Many of us carry the weight of untreated trauma, preventing us from living life to the fullest. My goal is to help you shed that weight and rediscover your inner resilience. With specialized training in trauma treatment, including EMDR and CPP, I am equipped to help clients of all ages. I also have extensive training on play therapy and expressive therapeutic approaches to meet each client’s unique needs.
Outside the office, I make time to enjoy my favorite things with my loved ones, many of whom are fictional characters from the pages of my favorite books. As a therapist, I prioritize walking the walk as I talk the talk, which is why I'm continually working on my own self-improvement and authenticity.
Whether you are grappling with stress, anxiety, or trauma, I am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment where you can grow and heal. I believe that every individual has the power to become their best self, and I'd be honored to join you on your journey towards becoming the most authentic you.
