McCarthy has eleven years of experience practicing in Florida as an LMHC - licensed mental health counselor.

People who choose her can expect a mix of insight-focused conversation and concrete strategies. She uses narrative and existential ideas to help people find meaning, and ACT and mindfulness practices to build everyday coping. Many clients leave with a clearer sense of purpose and practical tools they can use after therapy.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy puts the client's concerns first, so online sessions focus on what matters most to the person and follow their pace. This approach helps when people need to shape goals, explore feelings, or make practical changes.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches ways to accept difficult thoughts while committing to actions that match personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and struggles with motivation or meaning.
Mindfulness therapy introduces short practices and awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve sleep, stress, and focus. These exercises are easy to practice between sessions and can be adapted to a client's routine.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which ideas and exercises fit their needs, goals, and daily life. This is a shared process that can change as progress is made.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports using mindfulness exercises, values-based goals, and skill-building in the context of everyday life.
