About Jeralyn

Dr. Jeralyn Carter is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in Hawaii with 18 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, grief, parenting strains, ADHD, and other life changes. Sessions are presented in English and international clients are accepted.

She uses straightforward, skills-based work alongside reflective approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) appears in her approach list and is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools are also part of how she guides emotion regulation, values-based decisions, and coping skills.

Her background combines clinical counseling and life coaching. That mix informs practical goal-setting and regular progress checks. She frames therapy as collaborative work where goals are set and reviewed, and where changes are measured in small, concrete steps.

Sessions may include skill practice, thought records, behavioral experiments, and mindful exercises drawn from client-centered and Jungian ideas when helpful. She also notes experience with grief, complex trauma, mood disorders, and codependency, and brings a range of techniques to address those concerns.

Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online therapy options button.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Dr. Carter combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered methods into practical online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what helps. ACT emphasizes clarifying values and taking action toward those values even when difficult emotions are present. Client-centered elements provide space for the client to describe concerns while the therapist listens and reflects.r>
Finding the right method is part of the process. She works collaboratively with clients to choose which tools to try first based on goals and what feels workable. That shared decision-making can include trying CBT exercises, ACT-based values work, or skill training from DBT as needed.r>
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful for fitting appointments into a busy day, reducing travel time, managing energy around a check-in, or doing short focused visits when needed. Dr. Carter’s practice aims to make therapeutic work fit into real life while tracking small, measurable changes over time.
