About Georgia

Georgia Carey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Georgia focuses on practical steps people can use right away to manage hard feelings and difficult moments.

She believes people know their own stories and that therapy is a place to talk through what feels stuck. Sessions include talk therapy, skill building, and behavior changes. Georgia explains ideas plainly and supports clients as they try new ways of coping.

Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice thoughts, practice new responses, and manage intense emotions. She also uses Solution-Focused methods to set clear goals and Trauma-Focused techniques when past hurt affects present life.

Georgia often helps people address attachment and communication struggles, blended family issues, and challenges around caregiving, chronic illness, or body image. She also supports those dealing with codependency, control issues, divorce or separation, and recovery from domestic violence.

Sessions are intended to be straightforward and action-oriented. Georgia helps clients try skills between meetings and checks what is or isn’t working. People who want direct, practical support for guilt, shame, or related stresses may find this approach useful.

How Georgia uses structured approaches in online sessions

Georgia commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce distress, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and troublesome beliefs tied to guilt or shame. DBT offers concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for managing intense feelings and improving relationships.

She also uses Solution-Focused techniques to set clear, short-term goals and to notice what changes help most. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Georgia works collaboratively with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts the plan as they try things out.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current options before booking. When arranged online, the practical benefits often include easier scheduling around work or caregiving, shorter check-ins when needed, and being able to continue momentum without long travel. Licensed professionals can use these formats to help clients practice skills between meetings and keep therapy integrated into everyday life.
