About Georgia

Georgia Carey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 25 years of experience. She helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship concerns, and the effects of trauma and abuse. Her approach aims to make problems feel more manageable so clients can move forward one step at a time.

Georgia believes people know their own stories best. She listens and helps clients talk through what feels stuck. Therapy sessions include talk therapy alongside practical skill building and behavior-focused strategies. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Her work also addresses challenges tied to health and caregiving, such as chronic pain, illness, disability, cancer, and caregiver stress. Georgia supports people coping with attachment concerns, blended family issues, communication struggles, and life changes like divorce and separation.

She uses established, evidence-informed approaches to guide sessions, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. These methods are applied in simple, concrete ways so clients can try new tools between meetings.

Georgia frames the therapeutic relationship as collaborative. She helps people set clear goals and practices skills alongside them. Reaching out for help is described as a courageous first step, and Georgia offers steady support as clients work toward clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping.

How these approaches work for online therapy

Georgia regularly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. CBT often involves short exercises and small action steps to practice between sessions.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help with emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication. DBT-style tools teach concrete coping techniques that can be practiced in daily life when strong feelings arise.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before recommending which methods to try. Clients and the therapist review progress together and adjust approaches as needed so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as this biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain consistency and apply skills between appointments.
