Carly George

Carly George is a licensed social worker who brings 14 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, anger, and relationship challenges. Carly aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person sets the goals and guides the work.

She uses straightforward approaches to help people make change. Sessions often focus on practical skills from cognitive behavioral therapy, and on exploring personal stories with narrative techniques. Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs to find their own reasons to change addictive behaviors or to build healthier habits.

Carly emphasizes collaboration. She helps people name clear goals, then breaks those goals into small, doable steps. Progress is measured in everyday life - how conflicts feel at home, how cravings are handled, or whether anxiety interferes less with daily routines.

Her background includes work as a substance use, mental health, and family therapist in Ohio. Carly treats matters related to parenting, blended family issues, family of origin concerns, and young adult transitions alongside clinical problems like panic attacks, phobias, and process addictions. She also supports people dealing with LGBT issues and self-esteem struggles.

People who reach out can expect direct, compassionate feedback and practical tools to try between sessions. Carly encourages steady, realistic progress and adjusts plans when life changes make new priorities necessary.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. In practice this means the therapist mirrors what matters most to the client and helps them set and refine their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy adds attention-training skills that help with stress, emotional regulation, and staying present during cravings or strong feelings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques, and adapt methods based on the client's goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps make sure the approach fits the person's life and what they want to achieve.

Confirm the current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for flexible scheduling around work or parenting. Some online sessions may also allow shorter check-ins or reduce the need to be on camera, depending on available formats. Discuss practical arrangements during the first scheduling steps so sessions can be planned to match daily routines and goals.
