About Carrie

Carrie Stormzand is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with ten years of clinical experience. She works with children, teens, and adults across a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, parenting challenges, addiction, trauma, and self-esteem. She emphasizes practical steps and clear conversations to help people manage current struggles and everyday stressors.

Carrie focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship first. She describes her style as person-centered and collaborative.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to identify realistic goals and try methods that fit each person’s life and needs. Her background includes a decade of hands-on work with varied clients and situations. That time has shaped a flexible approach that borrows from proven, evidence-based techniques while staying grounded in what feels useful for the individual.

In sessions she listens for strengths, patterns, and immediate needs. Then she works with clients to practice new ways of coping and communicating. Those steps are intended to make daily life more manageable and to support steady progress.

Carrie supports people dealing with parenting pressures, career stress, relationship concerns, and identity issues, among other topics. She invites clients to take a first step and discuss what they hope to change. From there she helps create a plan that fits the person’s schedule and goals.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Evidence-based talk therapies are central to her work. Person-centered care focuses on listening and building trust first, then shaping goals that matter to the client. This approach helps when someone needs support sorting feelings, making decisions, or improving relationships.

Cognitive and behavioral techniques involve identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Those methods help with anxiety, depression, and habits related to addiction or anger by giving practical tools to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Carrie will work with each person to pick techniques that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. She adjusts strategies over time based on what is helpful and what is not.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to continue work between appointments. Licensed professionals can use these tools to maintain momentum, practice new skills, and check in more frequently when needed.
