Alice McCarter is a clinical social worker with 22 years of experience who is based in North Carolina. She holds a Master of Arts and is licensed to practice clinical social work in both Massachusetts and North Carolina. She supports adults across the span from early career through mid-life and into retirement.
Using a strengths-based lens and a solution-focused approach, she assists people with a wide range of life challenges. Her areas of focus include career development, work-life balance, sleep disorders, self-esteem and self-care, marital relationship review, caregiver concerns for children with special needs, and caring for aging parents with or without memory-loss disorders. She also works with clients facing grief and loss at any stage of life, procrastination, and other common stressors.
Known as an attentive, enthusiastic listener, she partners with clients to identify strengths and craft practical goals that guide the work together. She values the step of reaching out for support and is glad to offer therapeutic collaboration to those seeking help.
For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - online therapy can be an effective option and has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions. It can address the same kinds of everyday struggles and support people through transitions.
One of the main benefits is convenience and flexibility. People can connect with therapists in the format that suits them best - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they decide a different fit would work better. This flexibility, combined with proven effectiveness for many common issues, makes online therapy a practical choice for many seeking support.
