Meet, Claire Carpenter
Licensed therapist and professional hype girl.
Claire Carpenter, MSSA, LICSW
I’m Claire, a licensed therapist and professional hype-girl here to support you through your journey to a more comfortable, happy, and joyful life. I partner with adult clients, LGBTQ+ folks, or couples who may be experiencing infertility, pregnancy issues, postpartum mood issues, disordered eating, end-of-life, divorce, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.
I have a relaxed approach to therapy sessions that makes for a much more comfortable experience and I enjoy cultivating safe and trusting relationships with my clients. We start wherever you’re at and work from there to set manageable goals that create meaningful change in your life. You’re never alone with me in your corner.
I focus on using a client-centered approach as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, ART (accelerated resolution therapy) to provide clients with effective and lasting relief.
I promise not to…
Judge you.
Give you advice you didn’t ask for.
Use your time telling you what to do.
Pretend I know you better than you.
Make assumptions.
I promise to…
Make sure you are heard without judgment.
Give you honest and meaningful advice if you ask for it.
Give you room to communicate your thoughts and emotions.
Remember that only you know what is best for you.
Collaborate with you on how to make the hard stuff easier to live with.
