About Carly
Carly George is an Ohio LISW - a licensed independent social worker with 14 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family problems, depression, trauma and related concerns. Carly also works with people dealing with parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and issues common to young adults.
Carly uses straightforward, goal-focused methods. She helps people notice thoughts and habits that get in the way and then tries different ways of responding. Sessions are collaborative - the person sets goals and Carly offers tools and feedback to reach them. People who come for substance use concerns or process addictions will find that she draws on practical strategies and relapse-prevention planning alongside motivational approaches to support change. For family and relationship concerns she addresses communication problems, blended family dynamics, and family of origin issues in clear, step-by-step ways. Carly emphasizes direct, respectful collaboration rather than labels. She encourages people to define measurable goals and to track small changes between sessions. New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then booking a first session to set goals and expectations.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps clarify goals and motivates people to take the next steps in everyday life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different responses through exercises and homework. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Carly will review your concerns, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what helps you make progress. This is a collaborative process where goals and practical steps are agreed in session.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow concise check-ins when schedules are tight. It also permits using worksheets, guided exercises, and real-time coaching that extend work between meetings. Be sure to confirm which session formats are offered when you schedule.
