Getting to know Colleen Carty

Hi there, I'm Colleen! Feeling lost, stuck, or overwhelmed? You’re not alone. I help clients navigate anxiety, self-doubt, relationships, and life changes with curiosity and compassion. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself, to others, and to the life you want to create. My focus Struggling with anxious thoughts, self-doubt, or challenges in your close relationships? I work with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. Together, we’ll build coping skills and create a personalized plan for growth that feels empowering and achievable. My approach I use a variety of approaches that I tailor to each client's unique needs. This can include compassion-focused therapy, Interpersonal, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and a variety of other modalities. I help you process and navigate challenges while building coping skills to increase self-esteem and your ability to manage distress. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient as we navigate it together. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy began with a desire to learn how to navigate through life’s challenging moments and help others do the same. I found that I love being a part of someone's journey of growing and learning more about themselves. I am driven by the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and lasting change. My goals for you Starting at your first session, we will set goals together that reflect what you want to achieve. As we move through the therapeutic process and you gain new insights, we’ll adapt your plan to stay meaningful and supportive as you move toward where you want to be.
