About Carmen
LICSW and LCSW in Louisiana with 13 years of clinical experience, Carmen Haskins focuses on depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and relationship concerns. She names LGBT care and sexuality among her areas of work and practices in English.

Sheet 2
How evidence-based approaches are used in virtual care
She describes her work as person-centered and trauma-informed and relies on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. A person-centered approach focuses on the client’s priorities and uses open conversation to identify what to work on. It helps when someone wants a practical, client-led path through anxiety or mood concerns.Trauma-informed work looks at how past events affect current reactions and relationships. This approach helps people who notice patterns linked to past abuse or stressful events and want tools to reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Carmen will discuss options, check how methods fit your goals, and adjust the plan as you progress. That process is meant to match treatments to the problem, not to push a single technique.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel to an office. Licensed professionals can use remote sessions to deliver the same evidence-based techniques as in-person work, while adapting interventions to what works best for each person.
