I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals and couples through times of challenge, transition, and growth. My work is trauma-informed and grounded in therapies that are supported by research and guided by a recovery-oriented model—meaning I believe in your capacity to heal, grow, and lead a life that aligns with your values.
I specialize in evidence-based psychotherapy such as:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR)
- Integrated Behavioral Couples Therapy (IBCT)
- Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
I received my undergraduate degree at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and my Master’s in Clinical Social Work from the University of Chicago, where I was trained in evidence-based, client-centered approaches to mental health.
Carey Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor whose experience is gained through working with adolescents, adults, and families with a variety of mental health diagnosis, including anxiety, ODD, physical, and sexual abuse, eating disorders and more. A Louisville, Kentucky native she earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from Spalding University and later earned her Master of Education in Human Development and Mental Health Counseling from Lindsey Wilson College. Her work with community agencies included intakes, assessments and long-term individual and/or family therapy utilizing several therapeutic modality techniques. She has gained the knowledge and clinical experience essential for working with culturally diverse population who may be suffering from PTSD, grief and other mental illness.
I was born in Louisville but shortly after was moved to a small rural town about an hour south as a young child. I was raised by my grandparents due to my own parent’s struggles, which became my motivation for my own life. I have always wanted to be someone that children can talk to or relate to when in need. Life is not easy and that one person in your corner is so important. That is why I am here today advocating for you and advocating for your mental health.
I decided it was so important for me to be successful and be the light for someone in the future. With that, I applied to the University of Louisville with no idea how I was going to pay for college. Many obstacles stood in my way, but I continued on anyway. My college journey was bumpy and was never easy, but I did not let that stop me from reaching what I wanted for my future. I graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice with a Minor in Sociology. However, I did not think that was enough. I continued on for my Masters of Science in Social Work and decided to specialize in School Social Work. This is where my true passion was & what made my fire grow brighter.
So here I am today, doing what I love. I have been a practicing clinician for the past 3 1/2 years. I love working with school age children, teens, and young adults who are struggling with past trauma similar to my own or maybe anxiety due to the stressors of everyday life. I love watching my clients flourish and blossom into who they are meant to be. It is great to see someone who was barely standing on their own, begin to love themselves again. Or maybe the one who was so angry about what happened to them and did not know how to control it, begin to use skills and use that anger in a more positive way. I am here to help, and it is what I love to do. We will work together to foster the skills that you need to be successful within your daily life.
