About Carly

Carly George is a licensed independent social worker with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, stress, depression, addiction, and relationship or family concerns. Carly aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space so people feel heard and can set their own goals.

She uses plain, practical talk to help people manage panic attacks and social fears. She often combines strategies from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to reduce immediate symptoms and build longer term coping skills. Motivational interviewing is used when substance use or change resistance is part of the picture.

Carly views therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people identify clear, realistic goals and picks techniques that fit the person’s daily life. Sessions focus on skills you can use between visits, like relaxation, thought reframing, and communication practice.

Her background includes work in substance use, mental health, and family therapy settings across Ohio. That experience informs how she supports people with blended family challenges, family-of-origin issues, and parenting strain. She avoids labels and centers each person’s values when planning care.

If you are managing panic disorder, phobias, process addictions, or life transitions, Carly helps you build steps forward. To begin, follow the site’s matching and scheduling process so you can pick a time and start shaping treatment that meets your needs.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy puts your priorities first and focuses on what matters most to you. The therapist listens closely, reflects your experience, and helps you name goals that fit your life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific tools like thought reframing and behavioral experiments to reduce panic and anxiety symptoms. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to lower immediate arousal and improve focus during stressful moments.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about what you want to achieve, try techniques together, and adjust based on what helps most. That way sessions match your needs and preferences rather than following a fixed plan.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week, shorter check-ins when needed, and access from different locations in Ohio. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are available before booking. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and client-centered conversations to remote sessions to focus on symptom management and everyday coping skills.
