She has worked with people facing a broad range of concerns, including depression and anxiety, relationship and family conflict, stress management, ADHD, parenting challenges, career difficulties, intimate-partner violence, and emotional, physical, or sexual abuse and trauma. Her experience also includes supporting individuals and families through decisions about placing elderly relatives in short- and long-term care, assisting people facing homelessness or displacement, and working with those who have experienced suicidal ideation.
Across settings that have included schools, governmental agencies, psychiatric hospitals, and private practice, Carlithea brings compassion, warmth, and a consistent respect for each person she serves. She believes in treating people with dignity and in building genuine rapport, and she strives to meet people not just as she would wish to be treated but as they prefer to be treated.
Her approach to therapy is integrative, drawing from Gestalt, Humanistic, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal perspectives, and Systems Theory. She prioritizes meeting clients where they are and selecting the treatment modalities that best fit each person’s specific needs. Whether a client is navigating conflict at home, challenges at work, adjustments after adoption or foster placement, relationship or financial stress that interferes with daily functioning, Carlithea aims to partner with them to reach the goals they set.
She is a licensed clinical social worker in both North Carolina and New Jersey, and she is eager to support and empower clients as they work toward a more fulfilling and enriching life.

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for many individuals.
A key benefit of remote therapy is flexibility - you can connect in the way that best fits your life, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to attend sessions consistently and to integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
Licensed professionals offer care through these remote options, and clients can change therapists if they seek a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides practical access to skilled therapists while supporting progress on common mental health and life concerns.
