I believe life is a journey and there are times we fall, however what counts is how we pick ourselves up. I make it my mission to assist individuals to regain a purposeful direction on their journey. We all have problems that arise within our lives and we need guidance on how to deal with the existing issues.

I have experience assisting clients in the area of depression, anger management, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, teaching social emotional learning to adolescents, family reunification and family team building during the COVID-19 pandemic.

My hope is that when you reach out to me to receive therapy that we will together achieve your goals that has been established for your journey toward healing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Carl is a great therapist. He provides his own experiences to help guide the conversation and allow a safe free flowing environment in order to open up. Would highly recommend.

Reviewed August 2022

I was intensely skeptical of therapy and therapists due to past experiences, but Carl Dade's level headed, pragmatic approach has been a blessing and I'm incredibly thankful that I was matched with him. He is thoughtful and engaged and always goes the extra mile to make time for me.

Reviewed January 2022

Carl has a very welcoming / respectful approach to offer advice and somehow helps me to explore personal deficiencies. I was no expecting much when I signed up and was surprised that with the right therapist every character can profit. You won’t feel forced to do anything but instead be able to self explore with the guidance to areas that will make you benefit from considering your own mindset. I can definitely recommend Carl even for people like me who feel they didn’t need therapy in the first place.

Carl is a real cool dude. I've been chatting with Carl for a couple of weeks and he's helped me regain some self-confidence and focus on self-care and doing things that make me feel good. It's just good to talk to someone who can relate with me too. We are both married with kids so we go through the same kind of things.

Carl guided me through the grieving process as my father passed away from covid recently, and this was the first death I had experienced. He helped me understand the feelings I was having and gave me advice that benefitted both me and my family. I am grateful for his sessions and highly recommend him!

It’s only been two weeks since I’ve been speaking to mr Dade but I’ve already made progress on my journey and can definitely see tangible results. He gives me practical tips and advice, things I’m able to apply to my daily routine. he pushes me to see a perspective I might not have and is happy to talk about whatever I need to vent about.
