Annika Carter, LAPC

I am mental health counselor passionate about connecting with my clients through a trauma-informed lens, helping you understand the past and develop coping skills for the present and future.

Whether you are managing anxiety, depression, PTSD, adjusting to new circumstances, experiencing loss, or struggling to cope with the demands of life, please know that you are not alone. There are things you can do to help you feel better and re-establish a sense of well-being in your life. Together, we can work to move through whatever difficulties you are facing.

I primarily work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, and relational concerns. I am trauma-informed, incorporating exploration of the past to build connection to the present. The goal, ultimately, is to help you build a more fulfilling future for yourself and those you love.

My therapeutic support is eclectic and individually-tailored. I often use cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in a flexible way to support you toward your goals. I can utilize EMDR therapy (currently in process of training through EMDRIA) for trauma, both acute and complex.

Reaching out for counseling is a brave choice, requiring you to be vulnerable and set valuable time aside for yourself. My goal is to be empathetic and kind, while challenging the beliefs that are holding you back. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. I look forward to working with you!
