Clara Solomon-Carmack is a licensed professional counselor in Tennessee with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults, college-age clients, and adolescents who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, compulsive behaviors, and relationship struggles. Her approach is warm and non-judgmental, focused on building trust so people can speak openly about difficult feelings.
Clara helps people untangle the patterns that keep them stuck. She listens first, then offers practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage urges tied to behaviors like problematic gaming, excessive social media use, or gambling.
Background and approach
She also supports those coping with grief, addictions, or major life changes. In sessions she blends understanding with clear skills work. That includes using problem-solving steps, emotion regulation techniques, and ways to shift unhelpful thinking.
The tone is encouraging rather than critical, so clients can practice new habits without shame. She has experience addressing issues tied to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, body image, caregiver stress, and chronic health challenges. Clara also helps people facing communication problems, codependency, avoidant or dependent personality traits, and blended family stresses.
Therapy focuses on goals that matter to each person. Clara will help set small, achievable steps and track progress over time. The aim is steady improvement in daily functioning, relationships, and overall mood.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand how early relationships affect current bonds and reactions. It focuses on noticing patterns of closeness and distance, and it can help with anxiety around relationships, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues.Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what is said, and follows the client's pace to build confidence and insight. This approach is useful when someone needs acceptance and a steady space to sort feelings without pressure.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. It teaches specific strategies to challenge unhelpful thinking and to practice new actions. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, depression, and coping with compulsive behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clara will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Decisions are revisited over time so the plan can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversations and practicing new skills. Phone sessions can fit a lunch break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text let people check in between sessions or use shorter, more frequent touchpoints. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around school, work, and other commitments.
