About Carrie
Carrie Follmar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with six years of professional experience. She focuses on relationship and parenting concerns, ADHD-related struggles, stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions. Carrie emphasizes clients' strengths and works collaboratively to identify practical steps forward.
She uses a strengths-based outlook and leans toward solution-focused work. Carrie also draws on Client-Centered and Narrative therapy ideas to listen to each person's story and clarify what matters most. She may include psychoeducation or cognitive-behavioral strategies when those tools fit the situation.
Much of her work centers on challenges connected to ADHD. She helps people understand how ADHD shows up in daily life and in family dynamics. Her background includes experience with students, family members, and employees needing clearer structures or communication around attention differences.
Carrie aims to build a dependable working relationship and to offer straightforward support. Typical topics include blended family concerns, caregiver stress, midlife changes, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose. She also addresses isolation, impulsivity, and forgiveness.
Sessions focus on practical coping, clearer routines, and small experiments to test new ways of handling problems. Carrie invites people to talk about what they want to change and then works with them on steps that fit their life. If you want concise, strengths-focused counseling around family and parenting pressures, she may be a fit.
How sessions work
How Carrie’s approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy starts by listening and following what matters most to the person. It helps when the main need is to be heard, to name priorities, and to make decisions that fit everyday life.Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves. It helps separate a person from a problem and can change the way a parent or partner sees recurring patterns at home.
Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that produce change quickly. It is useful for stress, parenting hassles, and ADHD-related routines where brief experiments can show what works.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss these options with the client and choose methods together based on goals and preferences. That collaborative choice helps shape session structure and what is practiced between meetings.
Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking, since specific delivery options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, shorten commute time, allow a quieter check-in when needed, or remove the need to be on camera for every visit. Many people find those practical benefits help them sustain regular sessions and apply changes in daily life.
