About Carol
Carol "Carrie" Horne uses a client-centered approach to help people find clearer ways forward. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and major life changes. Carrie holds an ME LCPC and brings 40 years of experience in Maine to her work.
Carrie offers a calm, accepting space where people can talk about what feels hard. She listens first, then helps clients identify small, practical steps to reduce overwhelm.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize what the person wants to change and why it matters to them. Her practice blends cognitive behavioral ideas with mindfulness and solution-focused work. That means looking at thoughts and actions that keep problems going, learning clearer ways to cope, and trying simple experiments between sessions.
She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to trace how past experiences shape current feelings when that helps the work. Common concerns she addresses include caregiver stress, guilt and shame, mood difficulties, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety. Carrie helps people sort priorities, build coping skills, and reconnect with a sense of purpose.
Therapy with Carrie is collaborative. She partners with each person to create goals and adjust methods as needed. Her long experience supports steady, practical help for people ready to tackle change.

Online support
How counseling approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. It helps people feel heard and guides them to set goals and make decisions that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and stress and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and builds simple habits for managing anxiety and reactivity.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process continues over several sessions until a comfortable rhythm emerges.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people work face to face when visual cues help. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to find a format that fits schedules and communication style.
