I’ve been in the human services field since 2000. I have provided services to children and youth, adults, and the elderly in county, in-patient, hospice, community-based and clinical agencies.

My treatment approach is strongly oriented to CBT/ REBT, but the modalities are flexible and allow me to meet you in your journey to becoming a You who is more at peace with how you got to where you are and how you want to get to where you want to go on your way to a more fulfilling life.

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.

Carey was extremely helpful to talk to. He is very knowledgeable about a lot of things, he definitely knows his stuff. He helped me think about things in a new way and realize that some of my problems were more like symptoms of a deeper problem or feelings that I have, which helped me to tackle them in a different way than what I would have thought. He is always responsive and goes the extra mile to send me articles and worksheets pertaining to things we've talked about. I would definitely recommend him.

Not only this, his perspective and advice is wise especially with my situation. I look forward to my tenure with him.

I have been seeing Carey for almost a month now, and the progress that he has helped me make is beyond compare. When I first started with BetterHelp, I was reclusive and just wanted to hide— for a multitude of reasons— and it has been with Carey’s help that I have come out of that (at least a little bit.) He always has MY best interest at heart, constantly checks-in, and has the best availability that works for my schedule. Would absolutely see him in person if I could! 10/10 would recommend BetterHelp, and Carey, to anyone! There is help out there for everyone, and the best is here!
