About Carlee

Carlee Wallace is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in Utah with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, attention challenges, and relationship struggles.

Background and approach

Carlee aims to create a respectful and compassionate space for conversation. She uses plain language and a collaborative style.

Sessions are shaped around each person's needs and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Carlee emphasizes practical steps that clients can try between meetings to notice real change.

Her work draws on relationship-focused techniques from the Gottman Method alongside approaches that build present-moment awareness and flexible action. She also uses client-centered listening and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when emotion regulation or distress tolerance is needed.

Together these tools help with managing intense feelings, improving communication, and making values-based choices. Carlee encourages small, steady changes and supports people through setbacks as part of the process.

She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and helps clients identify what matters most to them. The aim is clearer priorities and more effective routines.

Starting therapy is presented as a practical step. Carlee works with each person to set achievable goals and track progress over time.

She frames the work as joint problem solving and honest conversation rather than labels or blame.

How online approaches and methods work together

Carlee draws from the Gottman Method to focus on communication patterns and building constructive interactions, which can help with relationship conflict and improving day-to-day connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, supports noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then taking actions that match personal values - this helps with anxiety, low mood, and motivation. Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and uses reflective listening to make space for understanding and self-directed change.

Choosing the right approach is something Carlee treats as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what feels most helpful. The work is paced to the individual's needs and aims to build skills that carry into daily life.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be quieter and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins, homework support, or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while keeping the focus on practical progress.
