About Carolee

Carolee Binette is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people facing anger, trauma, depression, ADHD, and parenting stress. She writes plainly and meets people where they are, aiming for honest, practical conversation that leads to real change. Carolee emphasizes a straightforward, down-to-earth style that many find easy to talk with when emotions feel big or messy.

She has 14 years of clinical experience in Florida working across child, adolescent, and adult concerns. Her work has included direct clinical care and leadership in children’s and family mental health programs. Carolee has supported people through trauma, emotional abuse, crisis, and behavioral challenges while partnering with community responders and law enforcement to offer mental health presence during active calls.

In sessions she focuses on uncovering what matters to each person and honoring their authentic self. Conversations are warm and interactive, and she keeps therapy practical and approachable. She avoids one-size-fits-all plans and adapts what she does to suit each person’s experience and goals.

Carolee draws from cognitive behavioral ideas, humanistic approaches, psychodynamic perspectives, and other evidence-based techniques. That mix helps her address anger, mood concerns, impulsivity, attachment issues, and the fallout from past trauma. She aims to help people understand patterns, try new ways of responding, and set manageable goals.

Reaching out can feel hard, and she recognizes the courage it takes. Carolee encourages people to take the next step when they are ready and to move at a pace that feels right for them.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Carolee uses a mix of cognitive behavioral ideas and humanistic perspectives to help people manage strong emotions and change unhelpful patterns. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep anger or mood problems going, then trying practical experiments to shift them. Humanistic approaches emphasize understanding the whole person, building self-awareness, and strengthening what matters to each individual.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and circumstances. That may mean blending different methods and adjusting as progress is made so sessions stay relevant and useful.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as session formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into daily life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people maintain continuity of care during busy or transitional periods. The therapist will help plan a schedule and format that fits practical needs and therapeutic goals.
