Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hello! My name is Carri Wilson. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Texas.
I have 24 years of counseling experience working in varying areas of the mental health field. I started my experience working with mainly women’s issues including domestic abuse and self-esteem issues. I especially enjoyed working with women of all ages dealing with relationship issues and conflict of role expectations in the family. This has recently evolved into counseling a generation of women that are now caring for their elderly parents and dealing with the challenges of Dementia and Alzheimer’s while trying to balance a personal life. Only just this year these issues became a personal challenge for me. Now more than ever I believe counseling support is imperative for the caregivers experiencing such stress.
I worked for almost 20 years in the field of education counseling children and parents alike on issues such as emotional disturbances, autism, ADHD, abandonment, effects of divorce, academic issues, behavior issues, cultural differences, drug abuse and special education concerns. Acting as an administrator for IEP’s and 504 accommodations allowed me the opportunity to advise parents regarding behavioral techniques and modifications needed to address a variety of emotional, physical and social needs of children. I have a soft spot in my heart for kids and truly believe parents should be supported as much as possible in the rearing of their offspring. With the transit nature of our society young parents often do not have the support available and need an encouraging professional to give guidance and direction. Because of my experience, I am a great resource in the face of these types of challenges.
For the last 15 years I have conducted family evaluations for families going through contentious custody issues, adoptions and guardianships. This experience in forensic counseling afforded me the opportunity to delve into the lives of families experiencing a myriad of problems. Working with the family courts and family agencies in the community gave me a wide variety of perspectives and options for problem solving.
I use a variety of techniques, using what I feel will works best with clients but usually lean toward a cognitive behavioral approach and person-centered style. That means I will be working with your thoughts, feelings and behaviors while making your best welfare my priority. It is important to me to form a genuine bond of trust with each client to ensure an honest relationship.
My style of counseling will be encouraging, warm and supportive. I truly believe that I can help with setting goals, changing behaviors, and using tools to make better decisions for you. I like to empower my clients to find ways to help themselves.
If you need a sincere person to work with, I am happy to help!

Her early work focused on women’s issues such as domestic abuse and self-esteem, and she spent many years helping women navigate relationship difficulties and conflicting family role expectations.

These caregiver challenges have recently become a personal concern for her, reinforcing her belief that counseling support is essential for those providing care.
Wilson also brings extensive experience from nearly two decades in education, counseling children and their parents on issues such as emotional disturbances, autism, ADHD, abandonment, the effects of divorce, academic and behavior problems, cultural differences, substance use, and special education concerns. In that role she served as an administrator for Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) and 504 accommodations, advising parents on behavioral techniques and classroom modifications to meet diverse emotional, physical, and social needs.
For the past 15 years she has conducted family evaluations in matters of contested custody, adoption, and guardianship. That forensic counseling work, in collaboration with family courts and community agencies, has given her varied perspectives and practical options for problem solving in complex family situations.
Therapeutically she uses a range of approaches, often drawing from cognitive behavioral methods and a person-centered style to address thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while prioritizing clients’ well-being.

Many people ask whether remote counseling can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions, research and practice show that online therapy is an effective option comparable to traditional in-person work.
One of the primary advantages is flexibility. Clients can connect with therapists in the format that best fits their lives – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – making it simpler to receive support without rearranging a busy schedule.
Therapists who offer remote services are licensed professionals, and if someone decides they need a different therapeutic fit they can change therapists at any time. For many people this accessibility and adaptability make online therapy a practical and impactful way to engage in mental health care.
