How her approaches guide online work

Dr. Carroll often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people manage thoughts and everyday habits. CBT looks at how thoughts influence feelings and choices, then teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values, accept difficult feelings without needless struggle, and commit to actions that match what matters most.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help choose techniques that fit each person's needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and feedback guide the direction of sessions.
