About Carly
She uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy, bringing skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness into sessions. Those tools are used alongside a trauma-informed perspective to address intrusive thoughts, dissociation, and the fallout of past harm. Carly helps people practice skills during and between sessions so those strategies can be used in everyday life.
Her approach centers on collaboration. She draws on each person’s strengths and priorities to set goals that feel useful and achievable. Carly pays attention to relationship patterns, attachment concerns, and communication problems that often keep people stuck.
She also supports work on body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, and finding a sense of purpose after major life changes. Carly has nine years of clinical experience working with people who face complex mood and trauma-related challenges.
Carly is based in Pennsylvania and provides services in English. People interested in starting work with her are asked to use the site’s Start Therapy flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability.
How DBT and Mindfulness Translate to Online Therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a therapeutic relationship that follows the person’s lead. It helps when someone needs a calm space to sort priorities and feel heard. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes specific skills like emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness practice. Those skills are useful for mood swings, intense emotions, and relationship challenges and can be taught and practiced in an online setting.Finding the best approach is a team effort. Carly works with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and day-to-day life. She adjusts tools and exercises so they feel practical and relevant rather than one-size-fits-all.
The online format can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to practice real-life skills between sessions. Because session options are not listed in the biography, confirm current formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online work can allow for shorter check-ins, guided skills practice, and written exercises that support learning outside the session.
