About Ohan
Ohan Carter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with three years of practice as an LCSW. She focuses on parenting, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, coping with life changes, LGBT issues, relationships, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, coaching, and compassion fatigue. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not take international clients.
Before becoming an LCSW, Carter worked in social work and psychology settings and has focused on practical supports for people facing loss, family conflict, and parenting challenges. She also brings experience with adoption and foster care questions, caregiver stress, and workplace issues.
Her approach blends straightforward talk with structured techniques. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also draws on client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most to the person in front of her.
Clients can expect sessions that look at specific problems - for example patterns of anger, ways to handle a work stressor, or steps for grieving a loss. She uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques when a client wants practical short-term goals and clearer next steps.

How her approaches fit into online sessions
Ohan Carter commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT is a structured method that helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for issues like anxiety, anger, and low self-esteem. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, reflection, and helping the person clarify what matters most to them, which can be useful for relationship and life-purpose conversations.She also uses Motivational Interviewing when a person wants help moving toward a specific change. That approach focuses on building motivation and practical steps rather than lecture or pressure. Together, these methods give options for both short-term goal work and longer problem solving.
Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative. She will discuss goals, try concrete techniques, and adjust based on what works. For online arrangements, confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter focused check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy can be scheduled around work or caregiving responsibilities.
