About Carrie

Carrie Brown is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in Oklahoma with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. Her work also covers trauma and abuse, self-esteem, grief, and intimacy-related concerns.

Carrie keeps sessions practical and straightforward. She listens first, then helps clients name what feels most urgent. Together they set small goals and try manageable steps between sessions.

Background and approach

She explains things plainly and checks in about whether a strategy is working. <brHer background includes training in attachment-based approaches and cognitive behavioral methods. She also uses client-centered techniques and elements of Imago relationship work and mindfulness. This mix helps her adjust to a person’s needs instead of offering one fixed plan.

People come to Carrie for a wide range of struggles such as caregiver stress, panic attacks, postpartum depression, and challenges tied to life changes. She also addresses areas like abandonment, commitment issues, infidelity, and career questions. Sessions look at both current problems and patterns that started earlier in life.

Therapy with Carrie aims to reduce distress and increase practical coping skills. She supports clients as they try new ways of relating and managing emotions. The tone in her work is warm, direct, and focused on everyday steps that fit a busy life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. In practice this means exploring how connection and trust affect everyday interactions and helping people try new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, panic, or low mood.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. Carrie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then recommend methods that fit. The plan can change as progress is made, and treatment is adjusted based on what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility around busy schedules and caregiving demands. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, continue work during moves, or maintain contact when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can use the same practical skills and goal-setting tools online that they use in person, while tailoring pacing and exercises to the format chosen.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
