About Carie
Carie Brown is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (KS LSCSW) with 19 years of experience in social work and behavioral health. She counsels adults on stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, and coping with life changes. She also addresses addictions, parenting questions, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and trauma-related issues.
Brown earned a Bachelor of Social Work from Fort Hays State University in 2000 and a Master of Social Work from Newman University in Wichita in 2003. She has worked in hospital mental health settings and community mental health programs. That background gave her experience across inpatient care and community-based supports.
In practice she uses clear, straightforward approaches. She draws on client-centered therapy to keep the person’s goals central. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of how she helps people notice patterns and try different responses to stress and anger.
She also uses EMDR for trauma-related work and Internal Family Systems when habitual internal roles and parts are affecting mood or relationships. Solution-Focused Therapy appears when clients want concrete steps and quick, practiceable changes.
Her work includes collaborating with other community organizations and offering drug and alcohol services where needed. Sessions are conducted in English and are based in Kansas. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.
How sessions work
How Carie’s approaches translate to remote sessions
Client-Centered Therapy keeps the client’s goals at the core and focuses on listening and collaboration. It helps when someone wants to be heard and to set their own priorities for handling anger or stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought-behavior links and uses short exercises to test new responses. CBT is practical for anger at work, snapping at loved ones, or breaking repetitive patterns.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for trauma-related reactions. In practice it combines focused memory work with structured processing to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins, and remove the need to travel to appointments. It also supports using practical in-the-moment exercises during a normal day to test new coping strategies and communication skills.
