Carolyn Johnson Fields , LPC

Carolyn Johnson Fields is a Texas-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a state credential that indicates training and authorization to provide counseling services. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Stephen F. Austin State University and a Master of Arts in Counseling from LeTourneau University. Her work is driven by a belief in the inherent potential of each person and a commitment to helping people move toward greater health and satisfaction in their lives and relationships.

Fields brings five years of clinical experience supporting people from varied backgrounds through concerns such as trauma and abuse, stress and anxiety, depression and bipolar symptoms, grief and loss, addictions, relationship and intimacy challenges, parenting and family issues, sleep difficulties, anger and career concerns. She also works with attachment and codependency issues, caregiver stress, communication and commitment struggles, dissociation, divorce and separation, and eating or substance-related problems. Her practice emphasizes skill building, emotional coping, and practical problem solving along with deeper personal exploration.

Her theoretical orientation leans toward Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Existential Therapy, and she tailors interventions to each person’s personality and goals. Counseling is approached as a collaborative process focused on realistic, meaningful change. Her services are not intended for people who are in immediate danger or facing an emergency; in those situations local emergency services should be contacted.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Carolyn Johnson Fields uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and goal oriented, and it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties.

She also draws on Existential Therapy to explore meaning, values, and life choices. This approach invites reflection on what matters most and can be helpful for coping with life transitions, feelings of emptiness, or questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Carolyn collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to individual strengths and concerns.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and live chat or text-based messaging provides additional ways to communicate between appointments. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home, balance therapy with work and family responsibilities, and maintain continuity of care when schedules change.
