Carrie Deese

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Hello! I’m Carrie, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Nashville, Tennessee with 5 years of professional experience. I have my Masters Degree in Social Work and a certification in trauma treatment from The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

I am passionate about helping others work through life’s difficulties – big and small. My primary practice experience is with children, teens, and families experiencing family conflicts, relationship issues, domestic violence, abuse & neglect, grief & loss, and life transitions. I also have experience working with compassion fatigue and first responder support in a hospital setting. My treatment approach is open and interactive. I follow a strengths-based model and utilize treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Attachment Theory. I also have experience with Play and Art Therapy with children.

I understand that therapy can be a scary place and offer open and interactive dialogue to foster trust and support. I believe that you are the expert of your story and am grateful for the opportunity to learn more about you and start this journey together!

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether therapy delivered online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

A major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect with a therapist in the way that suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – which can make it easier to fit care into a busy life.

All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and if someone prefers a different therapeutic match they can switch therapists at any time. Online therapy offers accessible options for people seeking support for everyday mental health needs.
