About Chase

Chase Carter is an LCSW based in Utah who offers counseling for people facing emotional and relationship struggles. He works with individuals and couples dealing with addictions, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and relationship challenges.

Background and approach

Chase aims to create a calm space where people can talk through what matters most to them. He combines practical therapies with a wide view of human experience.

That means using tools from approaches like the Gottman Method for relationship work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to identify values and change patterns, and cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Chase also brings client-centered and emotionally-focused ideas into sessions to help people feel heard and understood.

Chase pays attention to specific stressors that often come with relationship or health challenges. He helps people manage chronic pain, caregiver stress, attachment wounds, codependency, and difficulties after separation or divorce.

He uses short, direct interventions when helpful and slower exploration when people need it. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication.

For couples this can mean learning tools to reduce conflict and rebuild connection. For individuals it can mean developing coping habits, addressing avoidance, and improving self-worth.

Chase describes therapy as a collaborative effort. He works with each person to set goals and chooses techniques that match their needs and preferences.

He practices in English and provides care through multiple online session formats.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Gottman Method work focuses on practical skills for couples such as improving communication, reducing conflict, and rebuilding connection through evidence-informed exercises and structured conversations. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify their values and take committed steps toward them while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches concrete strategies to change patterns and reduce symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chase will collaborate with each person or couple to decide which methods fit their goals and personality. Sessions can blend techniques over time so the plan adapts as progress is made and new needs appear.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for longer conversations and role-play exercises, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits brief check-ins and between-session support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical schedules while keeping treatment consistent.
