About Carrie

Carrie Harris helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and major life changes. She is a licensed social worker in Maine and Alabama with 13 years of experience. She focuses on practical steps that make daily life easier and more manageable.

Carrie listens carefully and treats people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Sessions focus on concrete tools and realistic goals you can try between meetings.

Background and approach

Her work includes support for people dealing with loss, low self-esteem, panic attacks, and the effects of past abuse. She also has experience around adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, cancer, caregiving stress, forgiveness, guilt and shame, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and women’s issues. Therapy with Carrie is presented as a collaborative process.

She helps people set small, achievable steps and checks in on progress as challenges change. The aim is to build coping skills that carry into everyday life. She brings practical experience from community and clinical settings over more than a decade.

That background informs clear, down-to-earth guidance rather than academic talk. If someone wants steady support through a difficult time, she offers steady, compassionate help.

Practical approaches and online care

Many clients benefit from approaches that focus on skills and real-life changes. One approach emphasizes building coping skills and practical strategies to manage anxiety and panic. It teaches ways to notice stress, use breath or grounding techniques in the moment, and break worries into smaller steps to reduce overwhelm. Another approach focuses on processing trauma and its effects at a pace the person can tolerate. This involves gentle, structured conversation about difficult memories and current triggers, with attention to safety and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the client’s goals, and adjust the plan based on how things are going. That collaborative process helps find what feels most helpful over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility and several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when needed, while phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work for short check-ins, written reflection, or when a brief update fits a busy day. These options make it easier to keep momentum and fit therapy into real life.
