About Ammie
Ammie Carr offers calm, straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and parenting strain. She practices in Texas as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and brings 14 years of experience to sessions. Ammie listens to what matters most and helps people make practical changes one step at a time.
Her approach is down-to-earth and goal-focused. She uses client-centered work to understand each person’s priorities and combines that with cognitive-behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Background and approach
Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about making changes. Ammie has worked with people managing mood disorders, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, and addiction. She also supports those dealing with attachment issues, adoption and foster care questions, caregiver stress, and isolation.
Her practice includes attention to grief, self-esteem struggles, anger, and compassion fatigue. In sessions she helps clients set clear, small goals and practice skills between meetings. That often means identifying one or two manageable habits to adjust, rehearsing new ways of responding, and checking progress each week.
She balances practical strategies with a respectful listening style. People come to Ammie when they need a steady, experienced counselor who will talk through tough topics without judgment. Her work aims to reduce overwhelm and build skills that fit day-to-day life.
Sessions are offered in English and provided through multiple online formats.
How these approaches work online
Ammie uses client-centered therapy to make room for each person’s priorities by listening carefully and shaping sessions around what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a compassionate space to sort through emotions and decide next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and many daily habits that cause stress. Motivational Interviewing helps when a person feels ambivalent about change by exploring values and building motivation in short, practical conversations.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Ammie will talk through options with the client, consider goals and preferences, and adjust methods as progress is tracked. The first few sessions are often used to find the right mix of strategies.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for longer conversations and visual cues. Phone calls can fit a busy schedule or limit bandwidth. Live chat or messaging works for brief check-ins, tracking goals, or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit counseling into work, caregiving, or other daily routines.
