Carrie Zanoni , LPC

Carrie Zanoni is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical, person-centered therapy. She helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and life changes. Carrie talks plainly and works alongside clients to find what makes sense for their lives.

Carrie uses a client-centered approach to shape each person's plan. That means sessions reflect the client's priorities and goals. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns.

Her work includes support for grief, trauma and abuse, addiction and compassion fatigue. Carrie also addresses intimacy-related issues, sleep and eating struggles, anger, self-esteem, and career concerns. She offers focused help around ADHD, bipolar, and a range of interpersonal problems like communication and commitment issues.

Additional areas Carrie pays attention to include abandonment and emptiness, caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, chronic illness and disability, and challenges related to aging. She aims to meet people where they are and move at a pace that feels manageable.

With 16 years of experience in Michigan, Carrie draws on straightforward talk and practical exercises. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, with emphasis on small, doable steps toward better daily functioning. She wants to be someone clients can rely on while they make change.

Carrie primarily offers services in English and provides therapy through several online formats, which makes it easier for people with busy lives to connect without long commutes.

Using evidence-based approaches in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions that reflect their values. ACT can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions by focusing on what matters most to the person. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's own goals and preferences so sessions are guided by what the person wants to work on; this approach supports trust and clear priorities in treatment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical experiments to change behaviors and moods, which is useful for depression, anxiety, and coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful for their goals and day-to-day life. Treatment can blend elements from different approaches to match changing needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let the therapist and client talk face-to-face when a deeper conversation is needed. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, and easier scheduling around work or caregiving. These options aim to make consistent care easier to fit into a busy life.
