About Carrie

Carrie Frey-Davis is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions. She emphasizes a strengths-based approach, helping people build on what already works in their lives. Carrie frames the first steps into therapy as acts of courage and offers steady support while clients set goals and try new ways of coping.

With ten years of experience, she has worked with people who face depression, bipolar mood challenges, and struggles with motivation and self-esteem. She also helps individuals navigating midlife shifts, major life changes, and the emotional side of chronic illness or caregiving. Money and financial issues are among the topics she addresses when they affect daily functioning and well-being.

Carrie encourages clients to tell their stories in plain language and to move at a pace that feels right. She focuses on concrete skills and small experiments people can use between sessions. The work often includes problem-solving, improving communication, and building routines that reduce stress.

Her style is collaborative rather than prescriptive. Clients and therapist set clear goals and track progress together. Carrie helps people notice strengths they may have missed and use those strengths to handle setbacks.

People can expect straightforward conversation and practical tools aimed at improving day-to-day life. She balances encouragement with realistic steps so clients can try changes and see what helps.

How evidence-based techniques can fit into online care

Carrie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills you can use day to day. One common approach involves teaching practical coping and problem-solving strategies to manage stress and anxiety; this helps people break problems into steps they can act on. Another approach emphasizes mood management and behavioral activation to address depression and bipolar symptoms; it supports rebuilding routines and increasing activities that bring meaning and reward.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Carrie works collaboratively with each person to figure out which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what’s helping, adjust strategies, and set clear, measurable goals to track progress.

If you prefer online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around work, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up conversations without needing an in-person visit. Some people find shorter check-ins or nonvideo options helpful when a quick update is needed or when bandwidth is limited. Ask about available formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
