Carrie Crandall

Carrie Crandall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience licensed in Arizona, Colorado, and Illinois. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem challenges, career doubts, and major life changes. Her focus also includes codependency, control issues, divorce and separation, infidelity, life purpose, self-love, women’s concerns, and workplace issues.

Carrie views each person as the expert on their own story. She centers sessions on what the client wants to address and builds on existing strengths. Conversations tend to be practical and goal-focused while allowing space to process loss and uncertainty.

Her style draws on client-centered work, mindfulness practices, solution-focused techniques, and system-aware thinking. That means sessions can include slowing down to notice patterns, identifying small steps that move things forward, and looking at how relationships and roles influence choices.

Clients often use sessions to clarify values, test options for work and life, and practice new ways of responding to stress. Carrie encourages short, manageable experiments between sessions to see what helps in everyday life. She aims to keep pacing realistic for busy schedules.

Sessions are conducted in English. Costs vary by location and are handled through a cancellable subscription model. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment via the See online therapy options button.

How her approaches shape online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client’s own goals and perspective. In practice this means sessions are led by what the person brings, with the therapist asking curious questions and reflecting what’s important. It works well for people who want to sort through decisions or regain confidence.

Mindfulness therapy brings attention to present-moment experience and breathing or noticing exercises. These simple practices can help with anxiety, stress, and staying grounded during change. Solution-focused therapy looks for small, practical steps that produce noticeable change quickly, which can be useful for career questions or moments of overwhelm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Carrie will work together with clients to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That choice may shift as progress is made or priorities change.

The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can help fit appointments into a busy life by reducing travel time and making shorter check-ins possible during a break. Phone sessions can use less bandwidth and video allows visual connection when helpful. Licensed professionals adapt session length and pacing to match daily schedules and practical constraints.
