Hi there, I’m Carrie! I am the compassionate therapist and owner of Carrie’s Compassion Corner PLLC, a nurturing space created to foster your journey towards healing and self-discovery. With over 8 years of dedicated experience in the field of social work, I, the founder of Carrie's Compassion Corner, am committed to guiding you through your unique process of growth and understanding.

I obtained my Bachelors in Psychology from SUNY Potsdam in 2016 and Masters of Social Work (MSW) from Stony Brook University in 2018. Since then, I've immersed myself in a diverse range of therapeutic settings, including outpatient clinics, hospital, intensive outpatient program, residential care, and services for the homeless. My experience has given me deep insight into the unique challenges faced by young adults and adults, particularly those from the millennial and Gen Z generations within the BIPOC community. I’m passionate about supporting young adults and adults as they navigate life’s transitions, helping them silence the inner critic, embrace their true selves, and create a life that reflects their authenticity and cultural identity.

In March 2024, I founded Carrie's Compassion Corner with a vision: to create a safe space for individuals to explore their thoughts and emotions freely, to process life's challenges at their own pace, and to embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery. Recognizing that life can sometimes feel overwhelming, I aim to provide a space where you can be your true self, free from judgment and expectations. Whether you're navigating the effects of childhood trauma, questioning your ability to cope with life's demands, issues within your relationship(s) you want to process, learning to love yourself, or simply seeking to understand and express your emotions, I'm here with you.

As a Black woman, I understand the importance of advocating for and normalizing our emotional well-being. It's essential to me that my sessions are not only therapeutic but also conversational and grounded in authenticity. Remember, therapy is also self-care! By adopting a person-centered approach and embracing non-directiveness, I believe in empowering you to become the expert in your own life. Together, we can explore your inner world, confront challenges, and celebrate your progress, all while fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance.

At Carrie's Compassion Corner, you're not alone and don’t have to get through it alone. My role is to provide guidance and support, helping you uncover your strengths and navigate your path to self-discovery and healing. Let's work together to build a future where you feel empowered, understood, and genuinely connected to your authentic self.
