About Carol-Ann
Carol-Ann Duncan-Dean is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maine with twenty years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues, and major life changes. Carol-Ann writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
In sessions she listens for patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different responses. She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from difficult stories and find new perspectives.
Carol-Ann favors clear, structured conversations. She helps people set small, measurable goals and checks in on progress each time. Homework can be part of the process so skills get practiced between appointments.
Her approach aims to reduce overwhelm by breaking problems into parts. Conversations may include identifying thinking traps, practicing new behaviors, and rewriting personal narratives that no longer serve the client. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change next.
Carol-Ann works in English and is based in Maine. She asks people to choose the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session to begin. Costs vary by location and the practice uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches are used for online sessions
Carol-Ann works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. CBT sessions focus on concrete exercises, short-term goals, and skills that people can practice between meetings to reduce anxiety and stress. Narrative Therapy is used to separate a person from the stories they tell about themselves and explore alternative, more helpful perspectives.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carol-Ann collaborates with each person to decide whether CBT, Narrative Therapy, or a mix fits best given their goals and preferences. She reviews progress regularly and adjusts the plan if something isn’t working for the client.
