Carolyn Johnson Fields , LPC

Carolyn Johnson Fields is a Texas-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings formal training and a compassionate outlook to her counseling work. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Stephen F. Austin State University and a Master of Arts in Counseling from LeTourneau University. As an LPC Carolyn holds a state license to practice counseling and supports people seeking improved well-being and healthier relationships.

She approaches therapy with a belief in each person's innate potential and a focus on practical growth. Counseling is described as a collaborative process that can foster greater freedom, health, and happiness when approached openly. Carolyn has experience working with diverse concerns, including trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, depression and anxiety, panic, grief and loss, divorce and separation, and general life challenges. She also supports skill-building for coping and personal development.

Her theoretical orientation tends toward Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Existential Therapy, and she adapts methods to match each client's personality and goals. Carolyn invites prospective clients to explore their concerns and consider what a counseling journey might look like, and she notes that her services are not intended for individuals in immediate danger or emergency situations - in such cases local emergency services should be contacted.

Therapeutic Approaches and Virtual Care

Carolyn Johnson Fields draws on evidence-informed approaches to support clients in an online format. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and panic and to build practical coping skills. Existential Therapy explores meaning, values, and personal responsibility, helping people navigate life transitions, feelings of emptiness, and questions about purpose.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Carolyn tailors her methods in collaboration with each client. She will discuss goals, preferences, and how different techniques might fit a client's situation, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing busy schedules, family responsibilities, or mobility constraints. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that feels most accessible. This range of options makes it easier to maintain continuity of care and to apply skills learned in therapy to daily life.
