Introduction to counseling services
Talk therapy is for the person who wants to improve their life, who seeks freedom from past hurts, or who strives for healing.
What are some of the questions you need to ask before engaging in talk therapy?
- Do you want a man or woman therapist?
- Is it individual or couples work you want to do? Or both?
- Are you looking for a faith based therapist?
- Does the age of the therapist mean something to you?
- Are you seeking a therapist open to the LBGT+ community?
- Are you planning on using insurance?
- Will you need a sliding scale option for payment?
- What type of therapy does you therapist provide?
There are generally two types of psychotherapy:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) which helps a person to work on new ways of thinking and behaving
- Interpersonal therapy (IPT) which helps a person work on personal relationships

Sister Clare Carr, OSB, MA, LPC, CAC II
I am generally a CBT therapist and have worked with men and women for the past 21 years. I am a Licensed Professional Therapist and certified as an addictions counselor. Over these 21 years, I have met many brave men and women seeking healing and wholeness. I have always been touched by the courage of my clients in revealing their deepest pain.
I am trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing), used with the processing of traumatic memories. I fully support the practices of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and I am open and affirming to the LBGTQIA+ community. I also have a great trust in the dynamics of a spiritual life.
I offer a sliding scale payment option and take Tricare West insurance.
I generally work with adults both in individual and couples therapy.
At present I am taking new clients and I work both in face-to-face and online settings.
