About Carrie
Carrie Cooper is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 23 years of experience providing counseling in Utah. She works with adults on concerns such as depression, anxiety, parenting strain, grief, trauma and relationship struggles. Sessions focus on practical coping and clearer thinking rather than medical diagnosis or guaranteed outcomes.
Cooper holds a Master of Science in Counseling from the University of the Southwest and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Her background includes many years helping people from varied backgrounds cope with life transitions and recurring stress. She draws on established approaches to help clients identify unhelpful patterns and find day-to-day strategies that fit their life.
Her approach is client-centered and goal-focused. That means conversations begin with what matters most to the individual and move toward concrete steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot thoughts and behaviors that keep problems in place and to try different practical responses.
She also integrates mindfulness practices to help with anxiety, emotion regulation, and grounding after distressing experiences. Motivational interviewing is used when someone is ambivalent about change, such as with addictive behaviors or health-related goals.
People often come for help with family-related strains, parenting pressures, or attachment and abandonment issues tied to their family of origin. Cooper aims to support clearer boundaries, improved coping, and steadier daily routines.

How sessions work
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities. The therapist listens and follows what matters most, helping the person set their own goals and take practical steps toward them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It offers concrete exercises to try different responses to stress, anxiety, or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy helps with noticing sensations and emotions in the moment and often teaches simple grounding or breathing practices useful for anxiety and trauma.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, and then recommend methods to try. That plan can change as you learn what fits and what doesn’t. The process is collaborative and adjusts based on your feedback.
Session format details should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific online formats. In practice, people find remote sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about the available session lengths and how scheduling works so sessions can be arranged to fit day-to-day life.
