About Carol
LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) in Maine with 40 years of experience, Carol "Carrie" Horne helps adults who are facing stress, anxiety, trauma and life changes. She uses client-centered work alongside solution-focused and other approaches to help people manage symptoms and find clearer direction.
Carrie draws on long experience to keep sessions straightforward. She listens for what matters most to each person and then helps them try practical steps. Conversations often include ways to notice unhelpful thoughts, practice simple mindfulness, and make small behavior changes that reduce stress.
Her work addresses common problems like panic attacks, mood difficulties, social anxiety, and the effects of past trauma. She also supports people dealing with caregiver strain, guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose. Sessions generally focus on coping skills, thinking patterns, and short-term goals that match a person’s daily life.
Therapeutic methods she uses include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic Therapy. These methods are mixed to fit what the person says is most helpful rather than following a single technique only.
Carol favors a collaborative style. She helps people set reasonable steps and checks progress over time. To begin, a prospective client completes a brief matching questionnaire and schedules an initial session so they can see how the approach fits their needs.

How Carrie’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person feels understood and can identify their own goals. This approach helps when someone needs space to sort feelings and decide what they want to change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. It often involves trying small behavior changes and practicing new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety, panic, or low mood.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and reactivity. It can be useful for managing panic, agitation, and ongoing worry.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss methods with the person and adjust based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This is collaborative rather than fixed, with regular review to see what helps most.
