About Clara

Clara Solomon-Carmack is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with six years of clinical experience. She helps adolescents, college-age adults, and adults who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors. Clara takes a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental approach so people can talk about hard things without feeling judged.

Clara focuses on problems that often come with guilt and shame, such as struggles around eating, exercise, social media, internet gaming, and gambling. She also supports people dealing with high-risk behaviors and difficult relationships. Her work includes attention to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues, and concerns like codependency and control issues.

Her style centers on building trust first, then looking at the patterns behind thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. Sessions mix understanding with practical skills so people can manage intense feelings and everyday stress. She uses tools from attachment-based, client-centered, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, and emotionally-focused approaches as fits each person’s needs.

Clara helps clients develop healthier coping skills tied to their goals. She meets people where they are and moves at a pace that feels manageable. If Narcissism-related concerns are part of the problem, she can include that topic in the work when relevant.

Clara practices in Tennessee and conducts therapy in English. To start, clients follow the platform’s matching and scheduling steps to connect and arrange sessions.

How Clara’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at the ways early relationships shape how people relate now. It helps when patterns of trust, closeness, or abandonment repeat and cause anxiety or conflict. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on a non-judgmental, accepting conversation where the client sets the pace and goals. It helps people feel heard and decide what changes to make. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with clear steps and homework tasks that can reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clara will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to focus on and adjust those choices as progress is made. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.

If you are considering online therapy, check the session formats before booking since the therapist’s specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to continue sessions during life changes without losing momentum. Ask about how sessions are scheduled and what to expect on the matching questionnaire when you start.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
